[Verse 1] Sorry I’m late, sorry I’m here Sorry you had to see me like this Sorry I said it Sorry I didn’t, sorry I did I’ve been apologizing since I could speak First word I learned Most useful one Every sorry is a key Every door opens when I turn it [Pre-Chorus] Sorry, sorry, sorry So many times it’s just a sound Sorry, sorry, sorry Till it means nothing at all [Chorus] I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry That’s what they hear But sorry is a weapon Not a confession Every apology I gave Was a tiny leash I put around your neck You said it’s okay You said don’t worry You forgave me That’s how I won That’s how I won [Verse 2] Standing at a door I was told never to come back to Rain on my coat Notebook in my pocket Page 347 The last entry I’m sorry for the thing I actually did The real one The one that broke something I can’t replace My mouth opens Nothing comes out Sorry has been spent A coin so worn It won’t fit the slot anymore [Pre-Chorus] Sorry, sorry, sorry So many times it’s just a sound But this time it’s real And nobody’s listening [Chorus] I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry That’s what they hear But sorry is a weapon Not a confession Every apology I gave Was a tiny leash I put around your neck You forgave me And that’s how I won [Bridge] 347 apologies 347 times I held the power 347 times you forgave me And the one time I mean it Truly mean it Sorry is a knife In my own chest Not yours I can’t say it My mouth doesn’t know The difference anymore Between the performance And the truth And neither do you [Final Chorus] I’m sorry, I’m sorry That’s what you hear But this time It’s a confession No weapon No leash Nothing left to win Just one word I spent too many times To make you believe [Outro] Standing at the door Mouth open Nothing comes out Page 348 stays blank I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m— Please Just this once Believe me
