[Verse]
Just to say we're so-rry,
For the black eyes and blee-ding lips.
When it's hard to for-get
How ma-ny lies we've told.
Or how old we'd grow,
Be-fore I said good-bye.
So let's scrape our knees on the play-ground.
[Pre-chorus]
It's not your fault,
You feel o-kay.
It's too la-te in the day.
It's not your fault,
You feel be-trayed.
You can't come out to play.
[Chorus]
I ne-ver lis-tened to a word you ne-ver said.
I ne-ver lis-tened to a word you ne-ver said.
[Verse]
Was-ting the ho-urs now,
We're all suck-ers for tra-ge-dies.
We'll start this o-ver a-ga-in,
And you bring us to our knees.
As sun-rise co-mes,
And the s-to-ry will sell,
A few hun-dred pa-pers,
So we'll fo-llow you up.
[Pre-chorus]
It's not your fault,
You feel o-kay.
It's too la-te in the day.
It's not your fault,
You feel be-trayed.
You can't come out to play.
[Chorus]
I ne-ver lis-tened to a word you ne-ver said.
I ne-ver lis-tened to a word you ne-ver said.
[Bridge]
So raise your ha-nds up high,
And let this ra-in pour on.
So raise your hands up high,
And wash us a-way.
Like i-nno-cence and childbirth,
You look just like your mother
And you look just like your father.
Forgive him our father,
Your son is smiling,
So lay roses around you.
