do you think you can forgive me?
for all the things i've done?
i treated you like you were the gum
on the bottom of my shoe
i've cursed you
and hated you
and have tried my hardest to be cruel
i've been brutal and unforgiving
i destroyed every good thing in your world and in mine
okay, that's really melodramatic
but there have been times when i was just an awful human being
to such a beautiful one like you
and no, it's not all my fault
because you were awful to me, too
and i was beautiful at times
we both made mistakes
and we both spoke too soon
but every time i see your face
i wish i could reverse time
so i could get back to you
and call you my friend again
