Lyrics

Sorries pour out of you
All wide-eyed simple smiles
Certain to see you through
Like a QC full of fake humility

You say:
"Oh, please forgive..."

You say:
"Oh, live and let live..."

But sorry doesn't help us
And sorry will not save us
And sorry will not bring my teen years back to me
(Any time soon...)

Forced back, it springs right out
Seasoned, you have no doubts
You lied about the lies that you told
Which is the full extent of what being you is all about

You say:
"Oh, please forgive..."

You say:
"Oh, live and let live..."

But sorry doesn't help us
Sorry will not save us
Sorry will not bring my love into my arms
(As far as I know...)

Sorry doesn't help us
Sorry will not save us
Sorry is just a word you find so easy to say
(So you say it anyway...)

Sorry doesn't help us
Sorry won't protect us
Sorry won't undo all the good gone wrong
(My love...)
