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
