Your My Number One Regret
If I could make a list
Of my mistakes and my regrets
I'd put your name on top
And every line after it
Because every inch of hope
Becomes a world of shame
I've had to walk through
Each and every day
And if I screamed that you were wrong
At the top of my lungs
It would never return
All the faith that I have lost
Because there is nothing left to say
That has not been said
If I shouted, you wouldn't listen
I'd doubt that it would even sink in
If you forget how to feel
Put your hand to your chest
Is there a heart beating?
Or is there just emptiness?
