I’m no angel

I never said I was perfect,

I never said I was right,

I never wanted to hurt you,

But I hurt me with all my might.

I try to be the best I am,

But who's to say I follow through?

The best I am is just some sand,

Next to your castle of desert glue.

You want me to be amazing,

You want me to do it all,

But when you've dug me into a hole,

You expect me to do more than crawl.

I never wanted to hurt you,

You know I give damn,

And while I'm not a fucking android,

I'm certainly still a man.

I don't enjoy making mistakes,

I promise you it's true,

But when I do, I own it,

You can barely say the same about you.

So promise me that you'll consider,

This new information you've found,

And try you best not to step

On the eggshells all across the ground.
