Just the way i am

In the shadows i lay not one to shield A tender heart , like a daisy in a field. Yet with theswe broken hands i took my stand to guard from harm , you , the fairest of all my land But with each punch i dealt , i only caused you pain Every step i took , these fists with blood i stain Each desperate move i made , my bloodlusts dance i swear i never meant to hurt you under any circumstance These bloodied hands could never learn to love no one can change my ways , not even the gods above In an attempt to embrace your heart and keep it safe I became the sculptor of its eventual chafe Hell if i could go back and rewrite this wretched past To kiss your wounds and heal them at last On my knees i plead forgiveness for your heart In seeking to protect i only tore it further apart
