I'm Sorry

Trust is such a valuable thing
One moment you have it
The next, it leaves.

How could I have lost you
Over a little white lie?
I thought I was protecting you
From the evil outside.

I'm sorry if I hurt you
I never meant to lie
I just couldn't help to see you
Broken up inside.

Please understand
I can't bear to see you cry
So I thought I'd carry the burden
And keep it inside.
