Calculating mind you amaze me
Always thinking of a way to amuse yourself
Amusement at my hearts expense
You do things that you know will hurt me
Assuming I will not mind
You play games with my emotions
Gamble with my happiness
You try so hard to keep me from knowing what you do
Yet you claim you didn’t know what you where doing
You pretend not to know that it will hurt me
Never taking responsibility for your actions
You think simply saying sorry will make it ok
That my heart will mend
Don’t say you are sorry
Because you are not sorry
You are sorry for yourself
How can you be sorry when you did something that hurt me?
You knew I would hurt yet you went ahead and did it anyway
No… you are not sorry
Don’t say sorry
I hate it when you say sorry
It’s like you are mocking me for letting you hurt me
You are not sorry for causing me pain
You are not sorry for lying and cheating and taking me for a ride
You are sorry you got caught,
Not for my pain.
