I'm sorry doesn't mean as much as I though it would,
I'm sorry is a backward crutch that really does no good,
I'm sorry doesn't take away the hurt and pain and dread,
I'm sorry doesn't stop the thoughts that run straight through my head,
I'm sorry doesn't bring it back to where this fall apart,
I'm sorry doesn't make it so it has a fresh new start.
I'm sorry can't explain the fact you're nowhere to be seen,
I'm sorry doesn't make it right you have to be so mean,
I'm sorry but each day that's gone is one more I'm alone,
I'm sorry can't repair the place that once we called our home,
I'm sorry that you may think that this is all in vain,
I'm sorry but I really wish I could take away your pain,
I'm sorry that I made your heart reject what it loved most,
I'm sorry that all I have is a memory of your ghost,
I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough to choose you first instead,
I'm sorry that I crushed your heart with every word I said,
I'm sorry that I can't explain why I wasn't strong,
I'm sorry that you feel as though you hear the same old song,
I'm sorry that I'm what I said I wouldn't be,
I'm sorry that you felt as though you had to run from me,
I'm sorry that my actions sent you falling to your knees,
I'm sorry that my hurtfulness caused a tear in our strong seams,
I'm sorry that to this day I still can't call you mine,
I'm sorry but I can't believe that you can say your fine,
I'm sorry that my selfish ways had made you do what's right,
I'm sorry that all I do is dream of you at night,
I'm sorry that you had to rip away from our love so true,
I'm sorry that I'll never get to say these words to you...
