They were just kids
When I left them
And they loved me
But I turned my back on them
They were my world
But I couldn’t help feeling cornered
Keeping my feelings at bay
Is making me sick each passing day
What could I have done?
What could I have done?
What could I have done?
I’ve been asking God if it’s worth my time to apologize
Is it worth my time? To apologize
I can’t move on, and I'm sorry
If you get to grow up without ever having to see them fight
The way I see it I can justify running away
Because if I cause separation and I tear your family apart
Then you’ll nеver have a chance to grow up having a purе heart
And it hurts so bad to see you grow and see you move away
And to keep walking the straightest path
I’ll convince myself that this pain will fade
If forgiveness is ever the topic
Then I’ll have that discussion with you
But forgetting might be the best answer
If that means you’ll never know the truth
And I know that it’s awful for me to disappear
But if I made you suffer longer
Then you’d never have a reason to move on
