You never need to apologize

— Clementine von Radics

All this time

— Clementine von Radics

But my heart is an old house

— Clementine von Radics

The day I bought my cane, I realized

— Clementine von Radics

I thought leaving you would be easy,

— Clementine von Radics

I think I like my brain best

— Clementine von Radics

My battered heart will always be

— Clementine von Radics

All this time
