Last Minute Apology

Lyrics
I’m very sorry I couldn’t be what you needed at the time
Supposedly we’re better off this way although I have my reservations
Who knows, you said, what could happen in a year or 6 months down the line
I should have known that it was only conversation

For two years and a half we remained so single so friendly
And so utterly incapable of adequate replacements
You were forbidden to see the tears rolling down inside of me
I always wore the brave face wherever you went

To whom it concerns I’m still not over you
To whom it concerns I still consider it my fault
To whom it concerns I am glad you found your way
And I will be okay too

Those words ‘we need to talk’ took the air and removed it from my lungs
Stole my appetite along with the rest of my senses
Who knew my life would measure up to every single song ever been sung
I killed the radio and then I breathed in the silences

Misunderstand, please don’t, I really wish your happiness
It hurts a little to see you do the things I never could get you to
But my failure does not mean that I think you deserve this any less
So grant me audience among those who congratulate you

To whom it concerns I’m still not over you
To whom it concerns I still consider it my fault
To whom it concerns I am glad you found your way
And I will be okay too

Whoa, whoa...

To whom it concerns I’m still not over you
To whom it concerns I still consider it my fault
To whom it concerns I am glad you found your way
And I will be okay too

I’m very sorry
I'm very sorry
I'm very sorry
For this last minute...apology
