I’m Sorry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am sorry
I don't mean to remember
It's true that I dream less often, I'm not ashamed
Of that long December
Your hand's coming down again, I

[Chorus]
Close my eyes and brace myself
I only noticed your face

No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
No matter what, you're gonna build my shell

[Verse 2]
I'm falling (Falling)
I'm shedding my skin (My skin)
But it's not time I'm told (I'm told)
I am aware (Am aware)
Of what you mean by then
I'm only ten years old

[Chorus]
Close my eyes and brace myself
Only noticed your face

No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
[Bridge]
My scars are yours today
This story ends so good
I love you and (I love you and) I understand (Understand)
That you stood where I stay


[Chorus]
Close my eyes and brace myself
Only noticed your face

No matter what, you're gonna break my shell
No matter what, you're gonna break my shell

[Outro]
I'm done healing
I'm done healing

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
