The Guilt that i carry!!

Verse 1

The streetlights were flickering, cold and blue,

I pushed through the doors and I lost my mind,

The sirens came wailing the whole night through,

And I couldn't leave the darkness behind.

Flashing lights painting the hallway wall,

I was a stranger inside my skin,

I saw both your faces down in that hall,

And I saw what my breaking had been.

Chorus

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry tonight,

I know why they called them, I know I wasn't right,

Mum and Dad, I'm a burden, I've broken your peace,

And the guilt that I carry won't let me sleep,

I love you both more than these words ever say,

And I know you won't believe it through all of the pain,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Verse 2

Empty hallways and a silence that's loud,

I'm counting the minutes and I'm not proud,

The words that I said, I can't take them back,

And I'm trying to fix what I put off track.

I see the weariness in how you both walk,

The quiet between us, the way we don't talk,

It's a heavy price paid for the things I have done,

And I'd give it all back if I could, every one.

Chorus

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry tonight,

I know why they called them, I know I wasn't right,

Mum and Dad, I'm a burden, I've broken your peace,

And the guilt that I carry won't let me sleep,

I love you both more than these words ever say,

And I know you won't believe it through all of the pain,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Bridge

I turned your whole world upside down,

And I burned all the dreams that you'd built in this town,

Every look in your eyes cuts me deep,

And the guilt that I carry won't let me sleep.

And I hurt you both, I tore us apart,

And I don't know if love can survive a broken heart.

Final Chorus

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry I am,

I know why they called them, I just need you to understand,

Mum and Dad, I'm a burden, I know what I've done,

And the guilt that I carry weighs more than the sun,

I love you both more than these words can explain,

And I hope that you still see the boy in the man,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
