Songtext von Sorry From the Start

I carved a canyon in the space between us Words like daggers thrown in reckless rashness My pride's a poison, it's choking the light Left you in shadows, I'm losing the fight Every mistake's a ghost that I can't outrun Haunting the wreckage of all that we've done I'm drowning in the weight of my own regret Every word I didn't say, every chance I didn't take I'm sorry for the fire that I let burn us down For the silence that screamed when you needed sound My flaws are the chains that I forged in the dark Now I'm begging for your heart to restart Oh, my love, I'm breaking, I'm tearing apart Can you hear me screaming sorry from the start? Your eyes were a temple, I desecrated the stone Took you for granted, now I'm cold to the bone I built these walls with every careless lie Now I'm trapped inside watching you say goodbye Your touch was my anchor, but I cut the line Now I'm adrift in the storm of my own design I'm drowning in the weight of my own regret Every word I didn't say, every chance I didn't take I'm sorry for the fire that I let burn us down For the silence that screamed when you needed sound My flaws are the chains that I forged in the dark Now I'm begging for your heart to restart Oh, my love, I'm breaking, I'm tearing apart Can you hear me screaming sorry from the start? I'd bleed for a moment to take it all back Rewrite the night where I painted you black My soul's a mosaic of all my mistakes Shattered in shards, it's your heart that it breaks I'm on my knees with this hymn of despair Praying you'll hear me, though I don't deserve it I'm the architect of ruin, the thief of your glory Every scar that I gave you, I'm reaping tenfold I'm screaming, I'm clawing, I'm tearing my chest To give you the heart that I swore I'd break less! I'm sorry for the fire that I let burn us down For the silence that screamed when you needed sound My flaws are the chains that I forged in the dark Now I'm begging for your heart to restart Oh, my love, I'm breaking, I'm tearing apart Can you hear me screaming sorry from the start? If you're gone, I'll carry this weight till I'm dust A ghost of the lover who betrayed your trust But if you're still listening through the ashes and pain I'm sorry, my darling, I'll never break you again
