Unravel Webs I Have Spun

We all can make mistakes
When we don’t know what to do
Then we need to hit the brakes
Before we drive right through

Don’t feel bad you’ve blundered
I have even smashed a cup
I have yelled so loud I have thundered
But there’s still time to fix things up

If I could take back things I have said
Just to shred them all like paper
And remove them from my head
Then I could then feel much safer

To fix all the things that I have done
I’d have to travel back in time
And unravel webs I have spun
It would make me feel sublime

Some things from in my past
Are ready to be closed
I will remove the cast
And all wounds will be exposed

The healing set to start
And pains will go away
I have never been to smart
But I always made my way
