Sorry
Sorry
I decide one night
That I’m finally going to go a day without
Saying Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
I apologize and it loses its meaning
I say something then I hope it doesn’t offend
So I Say Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
Not thinking about what it should’ve really meant
So I’m Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
I have created a bubble of protection
That I feel I can fill by saying Sorry
What does it really mean?
I need to step back
I need to say what I am thinking
Without an apology
I need to let a joke go by without worrying
Without saying a meaningless Sorry
We are taught as a kid that it means
We’ll never do it again
So Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
Words aren’t to be thrown around
Like breathing or a heartbeat
Know what you want to say
And it will be ok
Know what you stand for
Don’t back away
Enjoy what you believe to be right
State your opinions
Make them become a light
To those who are too afraid to speak their mind
Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
No more
I cannot apologize for this
I only know what I believe
Because to me you need to stand for what has true meaning
No more Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
What you say matters
You can open up the mind of the people around you
No more Sorry Sorry Oh Sorry
Say what you think
Or expect no one to know who you
Truly are
So I’m Sorry Oh Sorry
I’ll say you no more
