lyrics

i messed up bad · got it all so wrong · tangled you up in the words of a song · i guess my apologies got lost in the post · or maybe i just never had the strength and had to let it go · alex oh alex didn't know what you were thinking of · alex oh alex i never said enough is enough · and i know i know i know i know i should have had the guts to say · but i was young and held my tongue · i knew no other way · i'm sorry to say · sometimes your brain likes to play games · tell you you want what you don't really want then run and hide away · i felt so bad for leading you on · maybe it's nothing but sometimes i worry so here's my sorry in a song · in all honesty i never believed someone would want someone like me · caught up in denial that old vicious spiral took the best out of me · i was the frog and you were the prince · you handled it well so i flinch · cos i treated you bad and i'm sorry for that but you're a love i would never have had · one day you'll see this sorry i sing · or maybe it'll pass by you completely · you might forget but i will regret · how could i be so mean to say no through a screen? · alex you come back to haunt me
