…Hang on, just hang on for a minute
I've got something to say
I'm not asking you to move on or forget it
But these are better days
To be wrong all along and admit it
Is not amazing grace
But to be loved like a song you remember
Even when you've changed
… Tell me
Did I go on a tangent?
Did I lie through my teeth?
Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?
Did I bring shame on my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
Whatever you see, that wasn't me
That wasn't me, oh, that wasn't me
… When you're lost you will toss
Every lucky coin you'll ever trust
And you'll hide from your god
Like He ever turns his back on us
Then you'll fall all the way to the bottom
And land on your own knife
And you'll learn who you are
Even if it doesn't take your life
… Tell me
Did I go on a tangent?
Did I lie through my teeth?
Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?
Did I bring shame on my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
Whatever you see, that wasn't me
That wasn't me, oh, that wasn't me
… But I want you to know that you'll never be alone
I wanna believe
… Do I make myself a blessing to everyone I meet
When you fall I will get you on your feet
Do I spend time with my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
When that's what you see, that will be me
That will be me, that will be me
That will be me
This song by Brandi Carlile et al expresses to me the perfect sense of remorse, and how you don't see yourself as your mistakes.

York, where we did all the usual tourist things, including a visit to the
