Lyrics
I’m sorry
I’m sorry that you come to me in dreams
Like it’s the only way that you can find to talk to me
When I saw you last
We were fraying at the edges
I never patched it up and now
We’re unwound.
Thought I saw you wearing boots
But knew it wasn’t really you
Cuz you wear sneakers in the winter
Your clearness was a shiver
Slush seeping through your soles
Now your feet are wet
And I can’t wring you out
Oh I’m sorry that you had to see that
I’m sorry that you had to see me like that.
Chest a frenzy when I saw
You working my old summer job
It singed a nerve I thought was lost
Here I was measuring my scars
Envisioning yours twice as long
Your skin was smooth and shining
Like my street when it rains
Thought I saw your feet were bare
But knew you weren’t really there
Cuz you wear sneakers by the seaside
Your silence was a nuisance
Sand sticking to my socks
Now my floors are filthy
I can’t rinse them off
Oh I’m sorry that you had to see that
I’m sorry that you had to see me like that.
