Very Sorry*

I'm sorry

For all the mad things I've done

For all the bad things I've said

For all the sad people I've been

And you

You were the one

Who told me

Who trusted me

And me

I was the one

Who told her

Who trusted her

What can we do?

Who can we see in the light of truth?

What can be said?

For no words will evermore pass

Between my lips.

Nothing is the same

Because the secret is out

An unstoppered bottle

And I

Will evermore be true

I could not stand to see you cry

But what could I do?

The secret is out

And there is nothing

Nothing

Nothing at all

That any one

Of any of us

Can do.
