Can’t Take Back Lyrics by Thomas Frederick

Archive

2018

[Verse 1]
I had a raincloud hanging overhead
I felt it burst when we climbed into bed
Wish I could clarify my mess, but instead
The words I wished to say came out all red

{Pre-Chorus 1]
Insensitivity breeds instability
It's such a tragedy
This tale of you and me

[Chorus]
But I can't take back what's already been said
I can't dry off all the tears that we've shed
I cannot fix my selfish ways
And I hate that you can't seem to hold my gaze

[Verse 2]
Wipe away the anger dripping from your eyes
No further discussion, it's no surprise
Because now I see how much you compromise
But I've already severed our strongest ties

[Pre-Chous 2]
Oh, if I could press rewind
I'd leave it in my mind
Because today I find
It cannot be left behind

[Chorus]
But I can't take back what's already been said
I can't dry off all the tears that we've shed
I cannot fix my selfish ways
And I hate that you can't seem to hold my gaze

[Middle Eight]
I want you to know
I hear your honesty
I don't want you to go
But I respect the difficulty
You have with this
Bittersweet abyss
Oh, how I miss
The days of bliss when we'd just kiss

[Chorus]
But I can't take back what's already been said
I can't dry off all the tears that we've shed
I cannot fix my selfish ways
And I hate that you can't seem to hold my gaze
