So many hearts get hurt when you don’t heal your own
DISCLAIMER: Lyrics have been rearranged while singing. I’ll try to remember to change them as they fit. Thank you.
NO BLANKET STATEMENT

This should have been dealt with right from the start
So many tears been saved had I not played with my heart
One addiction led to you led to the rest
I'm done causing pain to all of you - getting this off of my chest
I'm not excusing what I have done nor do I want pity
I know many that would like me to suffer for the pain I caused all thee
And I have to live with this shame for the rest of my life
Even if you forgive me - I don't know that I can forgive myself and this strife
CHORUS:
No blanket statement will be made
I will not gloss over what I have done
I will not belittle any woman
For each pain is its own and I will not shun
to pardon - (me, myself or anyone...)
If I could go back in time - this is one thing that I would change
(And I have always said that I would not change a single thing)
But, I would tell my younger self to calm down and get off the range
For lives aren't pieces on a game board - and sex is never ever "just a fling."
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I don't know how to be on my own
The attention distracts me from my own truth
If I am to respect you as a woman
I must allow to feel everything I do (and not suffocate my wounds)
"If you don't heal what hurt you - you'll bleed all over those who didn't cut you." - Anonymous

Great work. Lots of truth here. Love your voice!

Looks like you changed a lot in verse 2, but used 'shun' as a rhyme in it, and its also in the chorus.
Very driving feeling to the verses and a strong vocal performance!
