You say you don't even know me   The recognition in your eyes gives you away   Hey could it be, was it really me?   The one that led out paths astray      I didnt want to give away too much too soon   Cynicism the mistake I drove right through   You said hard work would heal this rift I created   I should have heeded every word you say      My late confessions come through fear and alcohol   My late confessions come through fear and alcohol   I never saw you as the innocent one   I never realised 'til today      I should have heeded every word you say   I thought that you'd accept how I behaved   You said hard work would heal this rift I created   But then it's still too late for you my friend
