Contrition from Revolution by Within The Giant

I’ve told some lies
To myself not least of all
I swore I’d take the time
To try and make things right
I’ve held onto love
Buried deep and called it hate
To pretend I’m not at fault
When the voices never call

I am a coward and
I know I’m not alone
I’m surrounded by the echoes
Haunted by the ghosts
And I know I have the power
But it doesn’t mean a thing
‘Cause it’s never gonna change
Never gonna change

It’s taken time
To admit the way things are
The writing’s on the wall
When the tower starts to fall
When it’s my time
And I find I die alone
I’ll remember all the choices
All the chances that I’ve blown
