Regret

They say we're supposed to learn from our mistakes
If that were the case I'd be a first rate genius
I should be learning, growing, changing in myself
But now what you see is an empty, screwed-up shell

All my promises turned to lies
Tainting my memories of you
I can never heal your tearful eyes
They haunt me through the night

How can I have thought it's funny how
These things have worked out
When I've left this burning trail of pain
And all I want to do to save myself
Is tear me apart in a heedless, bloody sacrifice.

The words that fall out of my mouth
Are so out of tune with all I feel
My mind is left in disarray
The wounds I've torn will never heal

They say we're supposed to learn from our mistakes
If that were the case I'd be a first rate genius
