Leftovers

Please forgive me Please forgive my lack of self Took a chance with someone else Who stole too much Please forgive me There was a wolf in sheep's disguise Took the fire behind my eyes And left me here Now I'm struggling to be whole With the shell inside my soul To my name There's an empty plate It's all I have to give you I confess But if you're not afraid Of my broken frame We can build out of the pieces we have left The past has been ripped off my shoulders But the best of me was always in the leftovers Then you saved me When you told me that you see Every jagged part of me But still want in When we're together Filling up each other's gaps We're strong enough that no attack Can bring us down To my name There's an empty plate It's all I have to give you I confess But you're not afraid Of my broken frame So we can build out of the pieces we have left The past has been ripped off my shoulders And the best of me was always in the leftovers The best of me was long overdue The best of me The best of me The best of me was always meant for you To my name There's an empty plate It's all I have to give you I confess But you're not afraid Of my broken frame So we can build out of the pieces we have left The past has been ripped off my shoulders And the best of me was always in the leftovers
