tell me how afraid you are to smile weren't you the one so sweet
pushing it away will save the day but I must concede to breathe
will you consider this an offering of peace from me for me
you hush it push it push it away but I just can't leave

let me try to slip inside this state wasn't I the one gone deep
I can push myself away but I'll keep my deed

remember this for good I'll pass on putting it away for keeps
but your memory marks mistakes as a method to complete your needs
will you consider this an offer to forget about me like me
I hush it take it break it away but you just won't yield

let me try to slip inside this state wasn't I the one gone deep
I can push myself away but I'll keep my deed

I can't undo what I have done what I have said
must you bring this up every time we talk
I know I was wrong and I'm asking you to stop please

try harder look at yourself
try harder do it for me try try
try harder look at yourself
try harder say it with me I'll try

let me try to slip inside this state wasn't I the one gone deep
I can push my guilt away but I'll keep my deed

I can't undo what I have done what I have said
must you bring this up every time we talk
I know I was wrong and I'm asking you to stop this now
