I'M SORRY
a Pocket Full Of Posers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's nothing on my mind
So I can't tell you how I feel
I don't want you to leave me behind

I want you to know
That you still fill my heart
I'm not just wasting your time
I'm sorry I don't show it
I'm sorry you don't know
I can't understand all your pain
I'm sorry I don't say things
The way that you do
Our feelings are one in the same

Don't want you to feel
All the sadness and hurt
And all that you're feeling inside

So many things
Things that I can't explain
I can't even begin to try

I'm sorry I don't show it
I'm sorry you don't know
The way that you want me to be
I'm sorry I don't see things
As clearly as you
As long as you know this is me

I'm sorry it takes so long
As long as you know that I'm near




I'm sorry I don't talk about
The future cause it's just not clear

Overall Meaning

The song "I'm Sorry" by Pocket Full of Posers is a song about a person who is struggling to express their emotions and feelings towards someone they care about. The lyrics suggest that although the person feels strongly for the other, they have difficulties in understanding and conveying their feelings, which often leads to misunderstandings and confusion. The first few lines say "there's nothing on my mind, so I can't tell you how I feel," indicating that the person may be holding back their true emotions, and as a result, their partner may be unsure of where they stand.


As the song progresses, the lyrics reveal the person's remorse for not being able to show their partner how much they care. The lines "I'm sorry I don't show it, I'm sorry you don't know" express this remorse, and the regret for not being able to articulate their emotions properly. Despite this, the person wants their partner to know that they still hold a special place in their heart, and that they are not just wasting their time. The song concludes with the person acknowledging their shortcomings, and acknowledging that they are not perfect, but they hope that their partner realizes that they are always near, despite their difficulties in expressing themselves.
