I weep to think of the pain I’ve caused
The hurt I’ve made
The grief I’ve brought
I know what I did, know what I said
Spoke what I felt
Did what I dreamt
I see in your eyes, the quiet grief
Softened woe
Deeper sorrow
It’s me, it’s me; I see it all now
The darkened halls
And empty rooms
I heard the quiet of the dark nights
The echoed wails
The lasting tears
I saw the glares and vacant smiles
Mocking laughter
Twinkling sneers
I shut it away in plastic walls
In broken gates
And unlocked doors
I weep to think of the pain I’ve caused
I never stopped to think
I never stopped…
to feel
The hurt I’ve made
The grief I’ve brought
I know what I did, know what I said
Spoke what I felt
Did what I dreamt
I see in your eyes, the quiet grief
Softened woe
Deeper sorrow
It’s me, it’s me; I see it all now
The darkened halls
And empty rooms
I heard the quiet of the dark nights
The echoed wails
The lasting tears
I saw the glares and vacant smiles
Mocking laughter
Twinkling sneers
I shut it away in plastic walls
In broken gates
And unlocked doors
I weep to think of the pain I’ve caused
I never stopped to think
I never stopped…
to feel
