Swore I'd never end up like this
Can't see past my own mistakes
Broken promises turned into habits
And I've got to do something about this
I know, I know I need to start listening
Dear self, I've gotta write this letter to you
I'll admit I messed up, yeah, a time or two
I finally get what I'm supposed to do
Let go, go
It's not too late to start over again
Lesson learned from those things I did
And what I thought I could never forgive
That's why I'm writing
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
Looking back on all this indecision
Finding answers in a bottle or two
Shouldn't be alive, but amazing grace
Sometimes we all could use a rescue
I guess a broken heart is what I needed
To remind me she would never feel the deepest part of my soul
And I will long for innocence, in a sense
Dear self, I've gotta write this letter to you
I'll admit I messed up, yeah, a time or two
I finally get what I'm supposed to do
Let go, go
It's not too late to start over again
Lesson learned from those things I did
And what I thought I could never forgive
That's why I'm writing
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
But honestly, I'll admit I'm afraid
Because love is the answer
And I've never let it in
I swore I'd never end up like this
Can't see past my own mistakes
Dear self, I've gotta write this letter to you
I'll admit I messed up, yeah, a time or two
I finally get what I'm supposed to do
Let go, go
It's not too late to start over again
Lesson learned from those things I did
And what I thought I could never forgive
That's why I'm writing
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
Dear self
I'm sorry
I need you to know
Dear self
I need you to know that I'm sorry
I need you to know
