Mouth shut

I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't mean to make you cry
So now as I sit
I wonder why 
And was it all worth it
I could die a thousand times
I know you value privacy
I didn't see the harm I caused
Because I'm a fool
I am especially careless 
With my loose lips
I could try better to conceal a secret
And avoid the pain I cause next time
I could just learn to care for others 
Than overreact the next time
I should have said I love you
Kept my mouth shut last time
And be there to help
And kept my mouth shut that time.
