[Verse 1]
So this is my apology
For saying all those shitty things
I wish I didn't really mean
I'm sorry, I'm not sorry
You had your red flags up and raised
More traffic than East L.A
But I drove in anyway
My common sense on holiday
People fall outta phase
We were a crash course
We will just be a place
Stuck on your passport
You traveled to sometime
But I hope you will find

[Chorus]
Someone to cry for
Someone to try for
Someone to turn your crooked roads into her streets
Someone to fight for
Someone to die for
Someone whose arms will hold you tight enough to be
The reason you breathe
The reason you breathe

[Verse 2]
You stay in love like vacation homes
You like summers on the sunny coast
But when the cold needs a winter coat
You say you will until you don't
You wore a compass around your neck
A different North than we’d ever read
Well, did you get where you're going yet?
Wish you the worst, wish you the best
I don't know how I fell into your rear-view
Paralyzed lullabies, I couldn't hear you
So I hope you were right
And next to you tonight

[Chorus]
Someone to cry for
Someone to try for
Someone to turn your crooked roads into her streets
Someone to fight for
Someone to die for
Someone whose arms will hold you tight enough to be
The reason you breathe
The reason you breathe

[Outro]
So this is my apology
For saying all those shitty things
I wish I didn't really mean
Sorry, I'm not sorry

Kelly Brianne Clarkson (born April 24, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter, and occasional actress. In 2002, she came to prominence after winning the first season of American Idol, and has since been established as “The Original American Idol”. Her debut single, “A Moment Like This”, topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and broke the record for the biggest jump to number one in the chart’s history.

Her first album, Thankful included the top ten single “Miss Independent”, which earned her first Grammy nomination. Her second album Breakaway produced the hit single “Since U Been Gone” which reached number two on the Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.

Clarkson went in a different direction with her self-creatively-controlled third album, My December. It debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 and produced the top-ten single “Never Again.” Her fourth album, All I Ever Wanted debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Lead single “My Life Would Suck Without You” re-broke the record for biggest jump to number one on the Hot 100, jumping 97-1 in its second week on the chart. The record still stands today.
