Mama I'M Sorry
Mama I’m sorry,
I’m sorry that I don’t listen when I wanna have my way.
I heard you once, twice, three times, but mama I just wanna play,
This game, then finish the last episode.
I’m too addicted to this phone, mama, I don’t wanna go.
Mama I’m sorry,
I always fill you up with worry,
But I don’t wanna open my mouth, I’m afraid I might shout.
Mama I know, I’m shutting you out, I wanna talk to you I do,
But the anger pulsing through my body is preventing me from doing so.
Mama I wish I had the guts to tell you “I’m sorry.”
I’m not the perfect daughter you thought I’d be,
I try my best, I know it’s not enough.
My actions are speaking louder than my words,
Instead of “I’m sorry” silently my body tells you to worry,
But deep inside I once again am sorry.
