I writing this to you
In hopes that you'll forgive me
I'm truly sorry dear
That you even had to pick me
I tried my best but I've made things the worst
I'm sorry that I left you hurt
I left you broken in tears
And now you're choking on fears
That I'll leave you again like I did before
And I'm sorry baby girl but this time I swore
I wouldn't make the same mistakes
I won't leave you with heart break
I wish I'd known I could've seen it clearer
That the real problem was standing right in the mirror
I'd sit and stare into my reflection
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
I'll give you my all
But it doesn't seem to be enough
The fear inside your head
Is stronger than my love
It's pushing me out
And you're losing your hope
We both were shutting down
And now we're alone
We both lashed out
Because we weren scared
And now we are nothing
Empty and bare
You were so scared and you got lost in your mind
You didn't even notice how bad I wanted you mine
You've asked for space and you've asked for time
But I failed to give up I didn't want this to die
I poured out my heart it only bled to dry
I wanted that spark but all I could do was try
I wish I'd known I could've seen it clearer
That the real problem was standing right in the mirror
As I sit and stare into my reflection
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
So I'm sorry you're gone but I guess you're free
And maybe it's better off you forget me
Maybe you'll be happy and find someone new
But I don't think I'll ever love someone like you
You made me happy and I felt like I mattered
But I'm the reason your heart shattered
I wish I'd known I could've seen it clearer
That the real problem was standing right in the mirror
As I sit and stare into my reflection
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
This whole time I thought he was the problem
Little did I know I had caused him
Crying and fear was all because of me
You said you were scared but why I couldn't see
I wish I'd known I could've seen it clearer
That the real problem was standing right in the mirror
As I sit and stare into my reflection
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
Here I am travelling it all over again
But it doesn't matter as long as you're happy in the end
