Have I failed us again, my dear? By saying things that were untrue? Dodging things that needed doing And this damage I have done Is now becoming way too much for me to undo
I should have changed my ways when you warned me When the sky turned grey with a promise of rain Sweet wine into the river. I'll decline Yet another try to make good on a promise I made Keep it safe for a single day
I have failed you again, dear friend No curse reversed. I'm still unreserved All white lies in a line of many Out for blood, have formed an army
If the first step is indeed the hardest (It's a leap of faith) There is a chance I may actually rise above this (It's fighting chance) A final chance to redeem myself
I'm way too skilled in deception I'm all too prone to indiscretion
Yet again I'll try to make good on a promise I made It's a promise I made at the break of a brand new day It's a promise I may well break before the end of the day
