Say I'm Sorry - Temposhark

I watch the seagulls fly in circles

Diving down

Take two steps forward into the water

I throw myself down

My arms propelling me into the tide

One stroke out of time

Struggling onwards this guilt at my side

Leaving behind

Say I’m sorry

Out of my depth but I can’t come ashore

Till I say I’m sorry

I don’t want to swim away anymore

Saltwater burning and blinding me

The price of forgiveness, naiveté

Grey clouds come over, rain follows thunder

Hammering down

Kicking’s still harder, land’s getting closer

Seas become sound

Out of the ocean and clear of the tide

Slip away, my pride

Won’t be forgiven till we reconcile

Lower my eyes

Say I’m sorry

Out of my depth but I can’t come ashore

Till I say I’m sorry

I don’t want to swim away anymore

Saltwater burning and blinding me

A symptom becoming the remedy

Begin once more

If fear fuels my tears

Will it go when you know

Say I’m sorry

Nothing unspoken and nowhere to hide, when I

Say I’m sorry

I don’t want to feel this way anymore

I’m sorry

Let me say I’m sorry

Begin once more
