Thought racing
taunting… condemning
Ever reminding me of past wrongs I’ve done
Can I ever make it up
to those I have hurt
My thoughts say no… and they’ll never forgive
Give up, they tell me
Forget about all about it
Because they don’t care and never will
But I care
I was foolish and hurt people I love
And I need them to know I’m so sorry
If they could give me one last chance
If they can forgive my human errors
If they could only see how much I hurt, too
I’ll never make the same mistakes again
I’ll be a better friend, better person than I was
I’ll do whatever it takes to make things right
Maybe, if I know I have that chance
Maybe, if I know I can be forgiven
I won’t another sleepless night
