My Conscience

Let's hear it for regret It sticks on my mind like a secret, and it's caused so much pain So let me explain why I've been drinking my conscience under the table Swimming with scapegoats, I'm clearly unstable There's nothing for me So I will carry The weight of all my past mistakes Until I'm blue in the fucking face It started storming when I left the heart that I was warming It never just rains, it's always pouring So listen up, I've too much pride to lay down and die But I never got a chance to say goodbye Let's hear it for regret It sticks on my mind like a secret, and it's caused so much pain So let me explain why I've been drinking my conscience under the table I'm clearly unstable Carry the weight (the weight) of your past mistakes Until you're blue in the face from every step that you take Tear me apart This guilt is so frustrating Tear me apart Rewind to the start and... Tear me apart I wish I could say goodbye I never got a chance to say goodbye So when you feel like you've been losing in the long run I'll be standing right beside you with a shotgun Boom I will never come to terms with leaving So take me home I've got too much pride to lay down and die We've been failing, every breath that we take We've been failing, every step that we take Tear me apart This guilt is so frustrating Tear me apart Rewind to the start and Tear me apart I wish I could say goodbye Pray for the shores The tides are changing The waters are raising too high for my head to keep above The difference was I still made it out My conscience has some questions to ask (so call back) They've been piling since the day that you left (so come back) I've got a couple questions to ask But there's no one (no one) to answer me back I've got a couple questions to ask (so come back) My conscience has some questions to ask (so call back) --- My Conscience - Structures
