"Peace Treaty Cookies"

This bag of cookies
Is a peace treaty
So please
Forgive me

I've hurt everyone I'm loving
I'm aware of the pain I'm causing
Looking for that sweet perfection
I've gotten a harsh correction

Is this bag of cookies an okay sorry?
Or should I make everyone worry and hope you worry too?
I'm not religious but I'll pray to the man upstairs
And ask him to make you care

I'm being awfully selfish
I know this
I'm trying to keep you to myself
Even after you've left

I don't need a therapist to understand
That I'm a possessive man
So accept my bag of cookies
As a peace treaty
