Lyrics
[verse]
I keep calling but the line just rings and rings
You're not answering the door or anything
I said something in the heat that I can't take back
Now I'm standing in the silence of the aftermath
[chorus]
I'm sorry, but it's too late to say I'm sorry
It's too late, though I mean it from my soul
I'm sorry, but the damage tells a different story
It's too late to make you whole
[verse]
I rehearsed a thousand speeches in my mind
Every one of them still leaves the truth behind
Words are cheap when they arrive after the fall
Silence is the answer I deserve after it all
[chorus]
I'm sorry, but it's too late to say I'm sorry
It's too late, though I mean it from my soul
I'm sorry, but the damage tells a different story
It's too late to make you whole
[bridge]
Strings are rising like the weight inside my chest
Every apology just feels like one more test
Maybe I'll learn something from this heavy price I paid
Maybe next time I won't watch it fade
[chorus]
I'm sorry, but it's too late to say I'm sorry
It's too late, though I mean it from my soul
I'm sorry, but the damage tells a different story
It's too late to make you whole
