Saying sorry became a bad habit
Shocking my heart with its static
Never learned how to feel free
Sorry became a part of me
Always a failure, never excused
What's the point? What's the use?
Never amounting to anything larger
Moving slow, but need to move farther
Always less and never more
What am I really here for?
I'm sorry I'm such a pest
I'm sorry I'm not the best
I'm sorry for disturbing your peace
I'm sorry that I'm...me
Needing a drastic change
Needing sorry to be rearranged
Caused so much trouble in little time
Crossing every type of line
You're above me while I wallow
Lack of emotion left me hollow
I'm so sorry I only disappoint
I'm sorry I can't make a point
I'm sorry I'm not accomplished
I have nothing, yet flaunt it
I'm sorry I expect too much
I'm sorry I'm never enough
Wishes and hopes are only dreams
Everything is harder than it seems
Never have the courage or means
To find something in between
Lowest of all there is
Remaining here in the ditch
Don't pity me, just lock me out
I'll only fill your hearts with doubt
I'm sorry that I exist
It is something I can't resist
I try, but it doesn't add up
Standing here with a half-filled cup
Something, that will never be full
I'm sorry that I'm so dull
Supposed to be the hero of the decade
Into the background, I fade
Yearn to be loved, not despised
Wanting to leave others mesmerized
Just wanting someone to look in my eyes
And say "you don't need to apologize"
