So Sorry

I can't defend every shameful mention of me

It takes a long time searching before you conceive

That every moment, any selection

Separate your reputation from what you think others perceive

Who am I to decide the intent

And every motivation behind an event?

I see through tainted vision

When I can't even read myself

So sorry I'm the one

Waving scarlet flags overhead

Declaring this unstable ground

So sorry I'm the one

Unafraid of breaking the news

So sorry I'm the only one

When confrontation feels like posing a threat

And when you're miles from making a regiment

You're getting nowhere, you might consider moving on

'Cause perseverance doesn't always mean overcome

Why try to hide the obvious?

You'll never reach success from solemnness

I've set the standard lower

I've managed to restore my past

So sorry I'm the one

Waving scarlet flags overhead

Declaring this unstable ground

So sorry I'm the one

Unafraid of breaking the news

So sorry I'm the only one
