Lyrics
Almost Sorry
Disrespecting me I feel it to the core
You keep dismissing me like I am nothing more
Then just another little girl to push around
Doesnâ??t matter what I say youâ??re all the same
And Iâ??ve endured more
Then your ego could ever survive
Confident, Iâ??m in control, and itâ??s my life
Iâ??m almost sorry for you
You donâ??t know what youâ??re getting into
You wonâ??t know me till you know the truth
And Iâ??m almost sorry
Iâ??m almost sorry for you
You donâ??t know what youâ??re getting into
Iâ??m not sorry for the things I do
But Iâ??m almost sorryâ?¦ for you
Iâ??m so tired of everything being a fight
If you would listen you would see sometimes Iâ??m right
Hate the fact that my lifeâ??s one big defense
And itâ??s all because of people like you
Iâ??ve endured more
Then you will ever know
You make no effort to know me
Thatâ??s causeâ?? youâ??re too busy ****ing with me
Iâ??m almost sorry for you
You donâ??t know what youâ??re getting into
You wonâ??t know me till you know the truth
And Iâ??m almost sorry
Iâ??m almost sorry for you
You donâ??t know, you donâ??t know no
Iâ??m not sorry for the things I do
But Iâ??m almost sorryâ?¦ for you
Despite what you think Iâ??m not desperate
I donâ??t need you, causeâ?? Iâ??ve still got it
Give me some respect and you might get it
Why donâ??t you try it sometimeâ?¦
Iâ??m almost sorry for you
You donâ??t know what youâ??re getting into
Iâ??m not sorry for the things that I do no the things that I do
Iâ??m almost sorry for you
You donâ??t know no. no you donâ??t know, no
You wonâ??t know me til you know, til you know, til you know
Itâ??s time I find my way
Iâ??ll never feel this way again
Itâ??s time that I let go of all the damage that youâ??ve done
Itâ??s time I find my way
Iâ??ll never feel this way again
Itâ??s time that I let go of all the damage that youâ??ve done
Iâ??m almost sorry for you, almost sorry for you..
