Sorry
I thought I saw you crying
but then you looked away
I wish I could have helped you
but I couldn't find the words to say
I don't know your story
or how you got that way
it doesn't even matter
so please don't look away
What if I had said yes?
I didn't know what to do
I'm just so screwed up
I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't know how to feel
my heart has been closed
I'm afraid to feel again
and of the pain that could come
I'm sorry if I hurt you
or if it seemed like I didn't care
because the truth is that I truly do
that is why I'm scared
but then you looked away
I wish I could have helped you
but I couldn't find the words to say
I don't know your story
or how you got that way
it doesn't even matter
so please don't look away
What if I had said yes?
I didn't know what to do
I'm just so screwed up
I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't know how to feel
my heart has been closed
I'm afraid to feel again
and of the pain that could come
I'm sorry if I hurt you
or if it seemed like I didn't care
because the truth is that I truly do
that is why I'm scared
