Apology

I’m sorry if my eloquence offends you
I’ll try to be more vague in days to come
I wasn’t trying to play it smart
I was speaking from the heart
But in the future, if it helps, I’ll play it dumb

I’m sorry if my honesty misled you
I’ll see if I can be more indirect
I’ll start messing with the facts
Give my word and take it back
And then deny it all, if that’s what you expect

But most of all I hope you will forgive me
For not assuming you assumed the worst
And when you speak your mind
From now on I will try
To remember what you mean is the reverse

I’m sorry if you feel I have provoked you
By showing you how vulnerable I am
I’m sorry if you think it’s true
That my reaching out to you
Is only proof that I don’t give a damn

I’m sorry if there’s been misunderstanding
Based on what you’ve heard instead of what I’ve said
I’ve gone on to start anew
I’m sorry if you have confused
My moving on with messing with your head
