Clean Slate

i got this box of letters

they all start off the same

how could you do this to me?

the ink’s been dry for sometime

i just never sent them

i couldn’t write the last line

but now i’ve got it right

it’s too late for a clean slate

don’t try to make it up to me

let’s make a clean break

you don’t have to owe me anything

cause i don’t wanna owe you anything anymore

i lost another friend today

this time it was my fault

i was too wrapped up to see

she was crashing she was reaching

she was losing everything

it brought back such bad memories

when she said to me

chorus

i know we hurt each other but can’t we work it out?

i realize you’re the kind of friend that i can’t live

without

is it too late for a clean slate?

tell me how to make it up to you

i made a mistake

i know that you don’t owe me anything

but i was hoping we could start again

could we start again?
