Текст песни I Love You, I'm Sorry, Please Help Me, Thank You - Bad Books

Some bumper sticker wisdom while you're walking the plank
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
The illusion of protection in the face of a tank
You were a student
You were a soldier
You were a symbol
They made you a martyr
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
When the nationalist demagogues eat the desperately confused
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
We're so far past civility it feels useless to argue
But love isn't passive
A trick or a tactic
Tried to call action
So, go let 'em have it
When I open my perspective from my fear of the world
For the daughter I was trying to raise
With the total sum of everything asleep in my lap
I could hear I was the one in my way
You said life is sweet, my pain's got teeth
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
You said acceptance and forgiveness, I said nobody asked you
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me now
I have to drop it sometime, but I hate that I have to
Oh, but it saved me
Oh, but it changed me
It shaped and remade me
Oh, what it gave me
I was burned out on obsessing with the end of the world
And the daughter I was helping to raise
With the total sum of everything awake in my lap
I could hear what you were trying to say
You said life is sweet, and you praised God too
You said life is sweet, and you praised God too
You said life is sweet, if I let it be
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
