Ellen Montgomery Smith - A Bit of Grace Lyrics

I didn't mean to spill
The drink that you poured for yourself
I didn't mean to ruin
What was yours
It pours past the edge of the table while I repeat
I'm sorry
But the damage has already been done
So it seems it's not worth it

I know I'm hard to live with sometimes
I tend to fall a few steps behind
And I'm not asking for too much
Just a little bit of grace

You light your cigarette beside me
Knowing how long I've been clean
Start going on about how
Selfish I've been
If I could manage to untwist my tongue I would tell you
How you've hurt me
But in the meantime, baby
Fill my lungs with memories

I know I'm hard to live with sometimes
And I tend to fall a few steps behind
But I've choked up the words I need to say
Just give me a bit of grace
A bit of grace

I'm bound to mess something up
When I'm with you
It's almost like you set traps for me to fall into
And crawl my way out of
With a million I'm sorries
Only met by your spiteful apathy

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