for all the times that I apologized
with humbled head and weeping sighs
I find the times I tried to hide the lie
with sweaty palms and knuckles white

I need you to say it, say it
I need you to say it
the look on your face will betray it
say it

for all the times I knew the stakes were high
but shuffled feet and folded hands
I find the times I tried to fight the tides
on slipping stone and shifting sand

I need you to say it, say it
I need you to say it
the look on your face will betray it
say it

this inconsistancy goes away
when I can hear what you have to say

for all the times that I apologized
with humbled head and weeping sighs
I find the times I tried to hide the lie
with sweaty palms and knuckles white
