It happened again Without even knowing Unintentionally I didn't mean to be mean
It's not an excuse But I couldn't help it And what's the use When sorry's just regret I could say all the right words But I'm afraid I'd make it worse
Why does it take a mistake To know that I was wrong Why do I have to hurt someone Why must I walk through the fire Just to know it burns Why do I have to learn the hard way I'm trying to change But I'm only beginning To understand How broken I really am Maybe I should just go I'm not sure this is helping Good intentions I know They don't mean a thing Every time I try to love Oh I only mess it up Why does it take a mistake To know that I was wrong Why do I have to hurt someone Why must I walk throught the fire Just to know it burns Why do I have to learn the hard way
