Just to say we're sorry,
We begin with an apology for the pain we've caused, both physically and emotionally

For the black eyes and bleeding lips.
The bruises and cuts we've inflicted on you

When it's hard to forget
Despite the difficulty in doing so

How many lies we've told.
The numerous untruths we've told you

Or how old we'd go,
We'll go to great lengths

Before I said goodbye.
Before ending our relationship

So let's scrape our knees on the playground.
Let's start over like children and forget our past mistakes

It's not your fault,
You're not to blame

You feel okay.
It's normal to feel okay

It's too late in the day.
It's too late to change things now

It's not your fault,
Again, it's not your fault

You feel betrayed.
We understand you feel let down

You can't come out to play.
You don't want to engage with us anymore

I never listened to a word you never said.
We ignored what you didn't say

Wasting the hours now,
We're wasting our time

We're all suckers for tragedies.
We're all drawn to negative events

And start this over again,
Again, let's restart this

And you bring us to our knees.
But you're the one who has the power over us

As sunrise comes,
With the start of a new day

And the story will sell,
When the sensationalized story is told

There'll be a hundred papers,
Numerous news outlets will report on it

So we'll follow you up.
We'll keep up with you, no matter what

So raise your hands up high,
But for now, we'll raise our hands

And let this rain pour on.
And let the metaphorical rain wash us clean

Like innocence and childbirth,
We consider this to be pure and a new beginning

You look just like your mother
We note that you resemble your mother

And you look just like your father.
And your father, as well

Forgive him our father,
We ask for forgiveness on behalf of our father

Your son is smiling,
But your son is happy

So lay roses around you.
So we lay roses around you as a symbol of our love
