The Prodigal One - Sorry

Don't tell me you're sorry
'Cuz I don't need to hear that now
Just tell me you love me
And that you'll be with me somehow
Just tell me you'll be there
Just say you'll be on my side
But don't tell me you're sorry
Because I don't need to hear it

People tell me all the time
Try to empathize
Try to make me feel better
Read between the lines
But between you and me
It just don't help
It only makes matters worse
Like a broken shelf
So you can all those thoughts and condolences
I can't cash 'em in the bank
For my loneliness
So before you say it just listen to me
It doesn't do what you think
So

Don't tell me you're sorry
'Cuz I don't need to hear that now
Just tell me you love me
And that you'll be with me somehow
Just tell me you'll be there
Just say you'll be on my side
But don't tell me you're sorry
Because I don't need to hear it
It don't mean nothing to me

It ain't your fault they died
You did nothing to me
So you can keep all your prayers and apologies
God knows your heart
And he knows mine
There ain't nothing you can do
To change the hands of time
But you can be right here
Hear what I say
You can let me vent out in emotional ways
So I'll ask you again
I'll say it true
There's better things
You can do

Than tell me you're sorry
'Cuz I don't need to hear that now
Just tell me you love me
And that you'll be with me somehow
Just tell me you'll be there
Just say you'll be on my side
But don't tell me you're sorry
Because I don't need to hear it

'Cuz if those roles were reversed
If it was you standing at that grave
I'd wrap my arms around you
But I won't say a thing
'Cuz if the roles were reversed
If it was you standing at that grave
I'd wrap my arms around you
But I won't say that thing

I won't tell you I'm sorry
'Cuz you don't need to hear that now
I'll tell you I love you
And that I'll be with you somehow
I'll say that I'll be there
I'll say I'll be on your side
I won't tell you I'm sorry
Because you don't need to hear it

Don't tell me you're sorry
'Cuz I don't need to hear that now
Just tell me you love me
And that you'll be with me somehow
Just say that you'll be there
Just say you'll be on my side
But don't tell me you're sorry
Because I don't need to hear it
Don't need to hear it right now

Don't need to hear it right now

Don't need to hear it right now

'Cuz I don't need to hear it

'Cuz I don't need to hear it

Don't need to hear it right now
