Title: My Apology
Artist: Timid
©2002
[Timid]
I apologize to those I didn't love enough
and apologize to myself for those I loved too much
]when I bruised at the touch of pains cold finger
and let it get to me to the point that remnants of old linger
like a blues singer expressing my feelings through song
because my hearts beggin me, for therapy, so I can move on
I apologize to those for the days I didn't smile
and judged at first glance without taking the chance to walk a mile
in their shoes, and dared to, generalize them with others
and not heeding my own advice about books and their covers
To those I abused unknown and knowingly
I offer these words to be heard and taken as my apology
[Timid]
I apologize to the child Iused to be, that cried too easily
for suppressing that expression by burying it deep inside me
strangling that emotion with the notion of being beyond all that
and sorry for the times I should have stood up but just sat
I apologize for the lies that were told by me
and cheated myself of the chance to express honesty
and cheated you of the truth that you deserved
and cheated you of the validity of the reality you observed
I apologize for doing wrong and turning a blind eye to right
that left my mind to lie in the darkness shunning the light
To those I abused unknown and knowingly
I offer these words to be heard and taken as my apology
[Timid]
I apologize to the queen that I didn't recognize on site
and didn't take the time to get to know you beyond one night
I apologize to for angry times I silently cursed someone's name
for being inconsiderate to me, not thinking you may be feeling the same
with strife in your life, I may have made things worse
gotta learn tolerance and think what if the position was the reverse
I need to take heed of virtues, patience is one to learn
and be mindful of others impressions, respect is one to earn
I apologize to those who have waited for one for so long
because of pride I had to hid, only the humble are truly strong
To those I abused unknown and knowingly
I offer these words to be heard and taken as my apology
[Timid]
I apologize in a sense for events yet to come to pass
even though I know they will reflect like a mirror with cracked glass
many fold, as it's told, the seeds sown may come back to harm ya
this apology must go to my soul for incurring new karma
I apologize to my grandma for leaving when you wanted me to stay
and to my grandfather for not being there when you passed away
to my step father when I didn't bother to cherish our time together
and to my father for missed times we've now lost forever
I apologize to my mother when I complained, I should have praised
especially when you saw to it that I was rightly raised
To those I abused unknown and knowingly
I offer these words to be heard and taken as my apology
[Timid]
I apologize to myself for this past year and a half, defeated so easily
and even worse for this curse that's left inside of me
strength cannot totally be known until tested
and the full limits of it aren't known until bested
I apologize for not being the wall that didn't crumble and fall
from tall to small peices, I'm sorry for not giving my all
I apologize
[Timid - Nasia in the background]
{Nasia - I'm sorry whatever I've done...I apologize}
What is it in this life's game that keeps me from doing the right thing
Whatever it is I don't know
{Nasia - I'm sorry whatever I've done...I apologize}
What is it in this life's game that keeps me from doing the right thing
To my shame I don't know
{Nasia - I'm sorry whatever I've done...I apologize}
What is it in this life's game that keeps me from doing the right thing
Whatever it is I don't know
{Nasia - I'm sorry whatever I've done...I apologize}
What is it in this life's game that keeps me from doing the right thing
To my shame I don't know
{Nasia - I'm sorry whatever I've done...I apologize}
What is it in this life's game that keeps me from doing the right thing
Whatever it is I don't know
