Apology Accepted Lyrics
You don't know what you're doing
You're going backwards
The rings around your eyes
Are only getting blacker
You wear an X on your hand
I've got one in my head
Burning me inside
Wishing you were dead
Easy to see your life
Is only for the taking
You were doing what you did
My heart was breaking
It broke
You fucked up real bad
You failed to know
Just what you had
You needed me
But you left me
The hell alone
It has to be
And you get
What you give
You're just so
Deceptive
You don't like how we left it
'Cause in the back of your head
You regret things that you said
Apology accepted
Didn't know you were bluffing
I thought that I'd feel something
But with you I felt nothing, nothing
It's too convenient
Just to say you didn't notice
Your life is upside down
And always out of focus
You're like a hypocrite
You swear you never lie
When things revealed themselves
You should be doing time
Fucked up bitch
Out crossing lines
That's what you do
And then you do it all the time
Do you remember
How you treated me?
The shoe is on the other foot
And now the blind can see
You needed me
But you left me
The hell alone
It has to be
And you get
What you give
You're just so
Deceptive
You don't like how we left it
'Cause in the back of your head
You regret things that you said
Apology accepted
Didn't know you were bluffing
I thought that I'd feel something
I think you failed inspection
Apology accepted
You've got a knack for lying
Talking loud and then hiding
But now, look, see who's smiling
Me, motherfucker
And it feels great
It's just a matter of time
Before you fade away
And I know you're sorry
And you want to call me
Just to tell me
But it's too damn late
You're full of empty gestures
You are non-essential
It's inconsequential
'Cause you chose your fate
Your life's a car crash
You shoot your mouth off too fast
Who knew it would be me
With the last laugh
You like to fuck with things
And say it didn't happen
But I was there
Your bullshit keeps me laughing
How do you sleep at night
With all your lies?
Piling up like parking tickets
You don't pay the fine
You don't like how we left it
'Cause in the back of your head
You regret things that you said
Apology accepted
Didn't know you were bluffing
I thought that I'd feel something
I think you failed inspection
Apology accepted
You've got a knack for lying
Talking loud and then hiding
But now, look, see who's smiling
