about
From the perspective of a cheater who knows they made a mistake and decides to come clean and walk away from their partner, knowing that staying would only cause more pain.

lyrics
I did something wrong
I know, I know
Never thought it would happen
It was a mistake
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
Don’t know what I was thinking
But all of the lights were blurring my vision
She looked just like you
My drunken contradiction
If I could take it back I would but I know that I can’t
And after all these years you’re looking at me
Like you forgot the back of your own hand
An apology won’t undo all of my cruelty
I’m trying to fix this the best that I can
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff and go
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff but I’ll never be able to move on from you
I should’ve been more careful of every
Bottle that laid waste to my sin
My lucidity was gone after
Chardonnay, Merlot, Sauvignon
Please let me take all the blame
You’re all that I need
But I know that I’m not the right one for you
So I’ll say this before I leave
If I could take it back I would but I know that I can’t
And after all these years you’re looking at me
Like you forgot the back of your own hand
An apology won’t undo all of my cruelty
I’m trying to fix this the best that I can
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff and go
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff but I’ll never be able to move on from you
I probably should not have said anything to you
But if there’s something I shouldn’t have done
Is go searching in some strangers bed
When I could’ve made you the one
But for some reason my hands have a mind of their own
The will of my mind, ignored and alone
But what kills me, is my forever and always
Was never forever with you
If I could take it back I would but I know that I can’t
And after all these years you’re looking at me
Like you forgot the back of your own hand
An apology won’t undo all of my cruelty
I’m trying to fix this the best that I can
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff and go
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff but I’ll never be able to move on from you
Yeah I’ll pack my stuff but I’ll never be able to love after you
