I'm sorry

I can't bring him back
Wounded he crept inside
As the heart turned black
He crawled away to mend and hide
There's no forgiveness I know
But time's run out, in summer it began to snow
There’s no chance I'll get on one knee
Remember where he carved a heart? I burned that tree.
It's all cute, but it's just a pretend
Forget all the tears and prayers, he'd tearfully send
I'm picking up his pieces now
On the edge, I'm moving on somehow
It hurts me too
But I'm sorry girl, I can't be what you want me to
Look in my eyes
Watch me do the things you and the rest despise
I can't bring him back
He's not ready
His hearts turned black
And I'm keeping everything steady
Binded by innocent his blood shed
Enough done, enough said
But there's things in me you can't touch
And you hate my nature, hoping he'll return
Why should he, when along with him for years I did yearn
I'm so sorry I can't be
I'm so sorry, he was something I helped him to be
And I can't bring him back
I'm not him
But I'm the only light, when the sun shines black.
