Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You say, “Can we talk?”

I say, “’Bout what?”

You roll your eyes

I just tense up

Hands in my hoodie

Heart in a knot

You want an answer

I’m stuck on the shock

You broke me first

That part you skip

You want an “I’m sorry”

I still taste the drip

Of every late text

Every dry lie

You ask for the truth

I just change the subject, why?

[Chorus]

I don’t know how to say sorry

When I’m bleeding from the same story

You cut me deep, then you need glory

Like I’m the only villain here

I don’t know how to say sorry

Got these words stuck in my throat, choking

Half of me healing, half still broken

I’m reaching, but I freeze in fear

[Verse 2]

You talk about “us”

I think about “me”

You want a reset

I still see the scene

You laughing at messages

Face in your phone

I learned your password

Felt colder than stone

Now you want closure

I’m still mid-chapter

You beg for calm

I’m guarding disaster

I wanna own what I did

I ain’t clean

But how I apologize

For what you did to me?

[Chorus]

I don’t know how to say sorry

When I’m bleeding from the same story

You cut me deep, then you need glory

Like I’m the only villain here

I don’t know how to say sorry

Got these words stuck in my throat, choking

Half of me healing, half still broken

I’m reaching, but I freeze in fear

[Bridge]

Maybe I could say, “I’m sorry I shut down”

“I’m sorry I got distant when you tore us out”

“I’m sorry I don’t trust you, I’m trying to”

But it feels like I’m apologizing

For what you put me through (yeah)

[Chorus]

I don’t know how to say sorry

When I’m bleeding from the same story

You cut me deep, then you need glory

Like I’m the only villain here

I don’t know how to say sorry

Got these words stuck in my throat, choking

Half of me healing, half still broken

I’m reaching, but I freeze in fear (in fear)
