[Intro] [distorted guitar riff, double-kick drums] [growled vocal scream] [Verse 1] [palm-muted guitar chugging] You come around with those same heavy eyes Selling the same old rehearsed alibis I nod my head and I let the words fall But we both know that you don't mean them at all It's the fifth time this month that you swore you would change But the picture's the same, it's just in a new frame Say you've reflected and know what is right Then do the exact same thing later tonight [growled vocals] I'M SORRY IS EASY [Chorus] [clean melodic vocals, layered harmonies] It slips off the tongue But the damage remains When the talking is done Don't give me your promises, save me the breath 'Cause nothing is changing, your words bleed to death The weight of an apology is carried in the walk Show me you made it or just stop the talk [Verse 2] [harsh growled vocals, syncopated drums] A mountain of sorries won't cover the pain When the forecast keeps calling For exactly the same [guitar solo with rapid alternate picking] [Bridge] [half-time feel, clean guitar arpeggios] Yesterday's script is today's guarantee That tomorrow you'll do the exact same to me It's a carousel ride of regret and repeat While the trust that we built crumbles down at my feet [crescendo, drums build] You hand me a flower to cover the weed But you keep on planting the exact same seed You're building a house out of paper and twine Expecting to weather the storms in my mind [growled vocals] I'M SORRY IS EASY [Chorus] [full band intensity] It slips off the tongue But the damage remains When the talking is done Don't give me your promises, save me the breath 'Cause nothing is changing, your words bleed to death The weight of an apology is carried in the walk Show me you made it or just stop the talk [Outro] [breakdown, slow heavy guitar chugs] A mountain of sorries won't cover the pain When the forecast keeps calling For exactly the same [full band intensity] It slips off the tongue But the damage remains When the talking is done Don't give me your promises, save me the breath 'Cause nothing is changing, your words bleed to death The weight of an apology is carried in the walk Show me you made it or just stop the talk
