Lyrics

I let you down today

I failed you today

The day the calendar's a palindrome

The day is a palindrome on the calendar

With each second reflecting back around

Each second reflects back around

Mm-hm, now that I know that I let you down

Realization of letting you down sinks in


No, it's not mine to mourn

I shouldn't mourn; it stems from embarrassment

No, it's just born of this embarrassment

The feeling is born out of embarrassment

An' it's been bearable, but it all compounds

It has been bearable, but the burden adds up

Mm-hm, now that I know that I let you down

Recognition of compounding mistakes


And now that I know that you changed your mind

Awareness of your change of mind

Now I know you won't rely on me anymore

You won't rely on me anymore

I know you can't confide in me anymore

You can't confide in me anymore

I know you won't say "Hi" when you see me around

You won't acknowledge me when we meet

Now that I know that I let you down, hey

Reflecting on letting you down


Thunder lives under my brain

Turmoil and unease in the mind

And the bugs above now circulate

Anxiety and thoughts circulating like bugs

So I alternate between the sounds

Alternating between different sounds

Mm-hm, now that I know that I let you down

Recognition of compounding mistakes, again


I wanna let these years away

Desire to let the past years fade away

I know it's time we let these leaves turn red

Time to accept change, represented by turning leaves

But I can't let this season lead me out

Resisting letting the current situation lead to an end

Oh, now that I know that I let you down

Reflection on the impact of letting you down


Oh, now that I know that you changed your mind

Acknowledgment of your changed perspective

Now I know you won't rely on me anymore

You won't depend on me anymore

I know you can't confide in me anymore

You can't share your thoughts with me anymore

I know you won't say "Hi" when you see me around

No more casual greetings from you

Now that I know that I let you down

The weight of letting you down persists
