Off Target

I make promises I can never keep

Just so maybe tonight you'll sleep

Not for my sake, it never really is

I'm aiming to please but often miss.

 

I'd love to mend you and see you smile

But I never seem to stay a while

I'm fickle girl with a breaking heart

while I hold you together I fall apart

 

And if I leave you with a bigger mess

a heavier soul and a lot more stress

I swear I cried for you each day

I didn't want it to be this way.
