On Regret - Shovel Lyrics

I've seen the windows that you've look through
And the views that they provide
The corners they don't capture
That leave me room to hide

I can't bare for you to see me
Or the secrets that I keep
I'd be the voice inside your head that would never let you sleep

I'm a disease you can't get rid of
The sickness you can't shake
The shovel in the backyard
That can only dig a grave

I'll try to keep my distance
And I hope you understand
That if I let you dig much deeper
You'd only find a broken man

I hope you can forgive me
But only time will tell
This pit I call my home
Is no place for you to dwell

So cover me with earth
And forget me if you can
I'll stay where I belong
You'll never hear from me again

So I'll try to keep my distance
And I hope you understand
That if I let you dig much deeper
You'll only find a broken man
