I alone should pay
For these simple transgressions
So feed me a line
With which to start my confession
No, nobody should fill this in but me
Cause nobody knows
If I write back to you
Read my words with a grain of regret
And a dream we might still walk each other home
A scream but not out loud
Is about all I've refined
A silhouette of a wanted man
Papered over with time
Just hold whatever thought you've left of me
Let me try to rephrase, yeah
If I write back to you
Read my words with a grain of regret
And a dream we might still walk each other home
If I write I'm OK
Don't believe me now, I entreat you to say
Return that we might still walk each other home
Who but you knows better
Every letter of my refrain?
Can I abandon my ways?
Or am I trouble by any name? (I think I am)
Leave the rest to me
I'll have it figured out soon
Oh but first I'll apologize
For the sun and the moon
They're just two more things that are out of my control
Baby, I make three
If I write back to you
If I Write Video (MV)
