I've made considerable mistakes
tried to be someone else
I've smoothed the creases from my face
fought a war for myself

I could say that I was sorry
without losing face
but I'm far too proud to let this go

You say simplicity is key
but my head won't believe
Cos I'm complicated to a t
lose a thread, roll a sleeve

I could say that I was sorry
without losing face
but I'm far too proud to let this go

I could tell you not to worry
'bout your number in the race
but I'm far too proud to let you know
