I've made mistakes
Errors in judgement
that seemed inexorable
could I persuade you to
forgive past actions
regrettably deplorable
I've got what it takes
I can atone for the
Heartache that I've caused you all
Vindication
Is out of reach
but at least you've all seen me fall
As I picked up speed
I felt every vile
misdeed as the wind cut my face
But I couldn't bleed
enough for you
The faster I fell
I felt every evil
deceit now replete with disgrace
No, I couldn't bleed
enough for you
I've been a liar
A fabulist salesman
egocentric to a fault
Villainous vampire
demonic agenda
concealed by a superficial cause
A slave to desire
jumping through hoops
complete with backward summersaults
But when I got tired
I started to spiral
spinning and falling and this I recall
As I picked up speed
I felt every vile
misdeed as the wind cut my face
But I couldn't bleed
enough for you
The faster I fell
I felt every evil
deceit now replete with disgrace
No, I couldn't bleed
enough for you
