to be the one to swallow my pride i'll try but make no promises and before i go off to collect myself please don't give up while there's time

to be the one to swallow my pride i'll try and make no promises i'll wash myself of that feeling while i'm still wet and before i go off to collect myself please don't give up

while there's time my goal is to gain the courage and smile for a while

if i'm the first to open my arms and try well i've done mine i have no regrets i wasn't forced into this so it's all right

to be the one to laugh at my pride i'll try and make no promises i'll wash myself of that feeling while i'm still wet i'm trying to make the best of my nonsensse before i go of to collect myself please don't give up
