The Fighter

I’m sorry that the road’s been tough
Ma, I was never good enough
And though all you ever gave was love
I’ve only given up
I’m sorry ‘bout those songs I’ve sung
I preached «Let Go» but I held on
I made a fool of everyone
Who dared believe in me
I’m sorry about the things you know
The secrets buried in my soul
The drugs I’ve tried all felt like home
I only wanted to get some sleep
I’m sorry I betrayed your trust
The fighter always on the run
Though honesty is asked of us
I’m a liar by blood
