Under Regret

歌詞

Scribbled ideas and thoughts On match covers holding the lessons life taught me Gum wrappers, napkins and notebooks all filled With phrases and rhymes for the castle I'll build Sentenced and locked from the pen my heart spilled Into boxes of words, all perfectly preserved and frozen Under regret For years now I have saved them Untouched, diminished, betrayed them, buried under regret All the hopes of a child, and that humble, naive smile And the love that I will never forget is still waiting Under regret Thousands of lyrics for songs What pictures are worth but not one of them drawn Recorded accounts of my trials and doubts Pondering, finally I figured it out This time I will dive in and pull myself out Of these boxes of words Unsung and still unheard all buried Under regret For years now I have saved them, starring still afraid Of digging... digging... digging... Into the hopes of a child, and that humble naive smile And the love that I will never forget is still waiting Under regret
