i'm sorry if i
haven't been feeling well
and pass it off for nothing
i just don't want to
seem like i'm seeking for attention

and i'm sorry if i
speak too little, too loudly, too fast
it's said that those people
feel lonely inside
and i am proof of that

really, i'm sorry if i
cry over little things
or do things differently
or take things too seriously
it's just the way i am

i'm sorry if i
mess up my words a lot
and hurt you without meaning to
i have a hard time expressing emotions
and sometimes give the wrong idea

i'm sorry if i
have inflicted wounds on you
because of any of the above
and instead of hurting myself
i'm hurting you now

but can you hear my screams
in the cold and empty silence
can you see my pleads
behind my skillful mask
can you see me for who i truly am

you haven't
so i can only wait now
wait for someone to pick up the hints
piece together the clues i have left
and see how much i am trying

i'm sorry
