I don't want to be defined by my past,
I'm not so proud of my immaturity and misuse of words,
I'm sorry.

I was supposed to be 'Einstein',
Or at least that was the thought,
I'm not wise,
I'm regretful,
If only I thought about others,
I should have thought before I spoke,
Now look what happened,
You might forget the things I did,
But I didn't,
My eidetic memory is impeccable for a reason;
To teach me a valuable lesson,
Oh, I want to say sorry and all the synonyms in all the languages,
Because I'm really really really sorry,
Believe me,
I cry about it,
I guess I'm the Heartbreak Prince,
I was innocent,
I could still be,
I could still be the youngest child,
Inquisitive and free-bird like,
Oh could I turn back time,
Restart and not pause?

Why do you still care about me?
After everything I did,
The crazy stupid unthinkable things I do,
You still talk to me,
You know I really am sorry,
I'm sorry,
I'm the Heartbreak Prince.

Breaking hearts for years,
Could I pick up the puzzle pieces and fix your healing heart?
I do it so well,
Could I fade from this title that I own,
I'm not Snape,
I'm not pretending to be someone I'm not,
I'm not the Heartbreak Prince,
Or maybe I am?

It's an apocalypse,
Suppose to kill all your friends,
Break your tiny body into million pieces,
I'm the Heartbreak Prince,
Could I replay this old day?
Not be the Heartbreak Prince for at least a moment,
Could I still be
the Heartbreak Prince,
It's my only road to royalty,
Hopefully someday, if I'll ever be...
