<p>Nicely, you said sorry,<br>On your knees as if you wanted to submit,<br>With a sham sadness on your skin.<br>Like the usual,<br>You performed similar actions…<br>Hoping I'll fall for it, like all these times.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>After you doomed my happiness,<br>I cried myself to sleep every single night.<br>After you toyed with my life…<br>I was shattered and felt like trash.<br>After you sliced my heart into pieces, I was destroyed.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Yet, In a distance…<br>There you were taking the lead in my direction<br>You come crawling like a baby, apologizing!<br>With a bunch of flowers and chocolate in hand.<br>I stared at you with my teary eyes,<br>You reminded me of the pain you caused me…<br>You reminded me of all the times I forgave you for the same negligence.<br>I took in so much of your sorry's,<br>Finally, I don't think it's meaningful now.</p>

<p>Nicely, you said sorry!<br>A carol you know how to sing best…<br>Do you think that is adequate?<br>do you feel sorry is the perfect word for admitting guilt?<br>Do you think is perfect for the ways you hurt me?<br>It seems like a very little word with no emotions,<br>And I'm not convinced to let off all your deeds…<br>Please stop with your apologies,<br>It lacks endeavor and emotions.<br>And I don't need to reconsider the refusal,<br>I'm freeing myself from your unbearable love.</p>
