A New Thing (The Long Way Home)

Regret is filling me

Why did I do this though I’m not convinced

Why did I hurt myself though I care about me

Regret is making me sad

I was completely bad

Why did I go down a road with no end

Why did I confuse myself & got it misled

Regret is making me conscious

It is blaming me

For my mind’s ache & heart misery

For my eye’s redness & runny nose

Why did I let it be

Why did I blind myself

I hate it when it hurts me

Now I’m the only one living with this disgust

The disgust of what I could be

The disgust I shouldn’t be

I wasted away time & dignity

But most of all I betrayed a trust
