Hold the Lime

I'm Sorry

Lime

Open my eyes, it's a new day

But I'm far too tired to play

Just want to shut out the light

Roll back over and say goodnight

Depression rules me, makes me moody

Meaner than I should be, oh and I'm sorry

I'm sorry I exist, that I'm living a lie

Sorry I don't give in, no matter how you try

I'm so sorry I just have to speak my mind

Sorry at times that I can be unkind

Sorry to burst your bubble, it's time

Sorry, on the rocks, with a twist of lime

Open my eyes, I try to see

But there's evil in everybody

Just want to show them the light

Break through the darkness that they hold tight

Aggression takes me, trying to break me

Angrier, though I should be, oh still I'm sorry

I'm sorry hate exists, we're all living a lie

Sorry you don't give in, why do I even try

I'm so sorry that I can't change your mind

Sorry that truth is anything but kind

Sorry to have to to burst your bubble this time

Sorry, straight up, with a twist of lime

Open your eyes, it's a new day

But we've got to work now, not play

Just trying to spread all of this light

End the hatred, put away the fight

Love will guide me, compassion ignite me

Honestly, that's how it should be, oh no, but oh no

Sorry I can't hold your hand

Sorry you don't understand

Sorry your head's stuck in the sand

Sorry if none of this makes sense to hear

Sorry if the weight is too much to bear

But how can I put this delicately dear

I'm really not sorry, no no no

I'm sorry we exist, this whole world is a lie

Sorry I can't help, no matter what I try

I'm so sorry that they have won your mind

Sorry there's no hope for humankind

Sorry I can't burst your bubble in time

Sorry, it's the end, straight up, hold the lime
