I think of ways to say I’m sorry
I didn’t mean to cause such pain
And in the days that have unfolded
Nothing touches me the same way
It’s like my body was a patchwork
and all my dreams were folded in
and I just couldn’t find the frame work
so I tore off my own skin
Chorus
Little by little and a lot by the end of the day
My brain is a pain and the damn thing gets in my way
Little by little and a lot when you talk to a ghost
You leave yourself be and your mind begins to coast
This is a song of the unraveling
Of all the things that I did wrong
And though I know that it was maddening
I ask forgiveness with this song
I speak in tones of past uncertainty
And not a word of it a lie
And in the end I know with certainty
If you call the song I will abide
Little by little and a lot by the end of a dream
The drums are pounding and a thousand guitars scream
Little by little and a lot by the end of it all
The music comes around and it hits you like a stone brick wall
