Loyal Wife - Apology
This is an apology I've put off for more than 8 years
How can I explain how I let it go this long
This is an apology I put off for over 8 years
How can I explain how I led you on so long
Shouldn’t I have told you?
Shouldn’t I have left you there?
This is an apology I've put off for over 8 years
I shouldn't have a reason how I let it go so long
This is an apology you've deserved for over 8 years
Now the only reason I could give I give in the song
Shouldn't I have told you?
And wouldn’t I have if I cared?
I couldn’t think about you
So I had to disappear
But shouldn’t I have told you?
Or should've I just left you there?
If we spoke I'd say what can I do?
You'd say come back and I'd say I want to
We'd need to stay strong and I don't have strength to
And I'd hate myself
You’d hate myself
No words can patch the ones I lack
As long as we're still here the choice is never clear
No words can patch courage I lack
Shouldn’t I have told you
Why I chose to disappear
I didn’t want to face you
I didn’t want to make you care
Shouldn’t I have told you
Shouldn’t I have left you there?
This song has been retired. Expect a lesser-emo version called "White Apology" aka "Pale Privilege" late-2022, produced in the Jamie Woolford Studios, Phoenix, Arizona. R.I.P. M.M.B.
