i'm sorry for everything

I was a drowning man
Sinking in an ocean invented in my head
You were a tidal wave
That carried me to shore at the point that I should've been dead
And nothing prepared me for
When I said goodbye and you left from the airport

I'm sorry for everything
You were the only one
I promised to be there for

And now that I'm gone
It's no secret that I'm in pain
Stuck like a pantomime, fingers still intertwined
Deep in my brain

I was a sinking ship
Caught in the pull of a vortex shaped like your mouth
And you were a canopy
A million feet below where my tightrope was giving out
Feeling like broken bones
My head and my room both a mess from my lack of upkeep

I'm sorry for everything
'Cause you were the only one
Who really meant everything to me

So tell me why I oughta go forget you
There's no reason on earth that I'd listen to
I'm here for one thing in this life that I live
And it's this happiness that I'm giving you
It's this happiness that I'm giving you
It's this happiness that I'm giving you

And now that I'm gone
It's no secret that I'm in pain
Stuck like a pantomime, fingers still intertwined
Deep in my brain

And now that you're gone
It's no secret that I'm afraid
Stuck like a broken clock, hoping to focus on
Something besides what I miss in your name
