I'm Sorry

This one was written for an ex boyfriend. He's not in my life anymore.

i'm sorry
i'm sorry
it's all i ever hear
what's everyone so sorry for?
it's not like i can feel.

my feelings
my feelings
they think that i'm so weak
how can they say i have no feelings?
when there's dropplets on my cheek

the tears
the tears
they're falling from my eyes
who's to say it doesn't hurt?
i can't stand all these lies

my heart
my heart
i can't take it anymore
when is all the pain to stop?
i'm sick of playing whore

a whore
a whore
i gave my life for men
where else can i find love i need?
but they always pretend

a fake
a fake
that's all they ever were
why didn't i see it at first?
but now my life is over

my life
my life
there's nothing you can say
except that you were sorry
that you treated me that way
