I regret everything

all the wrong that I have done

all the pain that I've allowed

everything I've done to anyone

there's nothing I can do about it now

but I am sorry

I apologize

for the coldness inside my eyes

I look in the mirror and recognize

the humility I must bring

with all of the mistakes I've made

I regret everything

every time I've made you cry

every time I've been a fool

every empty alibi

now I'm breaking all the rules

but I am sorry

can I make amends

I ask forgiveness of all my friends

my selfish days are at an end

I'm through auditioning

for a role I cannot play

I regret everything

can you find it in yourself

to let me off the hook

or should I just be someone else

without a second look

I am sorry

I guess I don't know much

except the need for a human touch

my masquerade is just a crutch

for a song I cannot sing

there are no second chances

I regret everything
