It's Hard to Say I'm Sorry Lyrics

I could feel it in the silence, in the space we never filled

All the words I left unspoken, all the pride I couldn't kill

I let anger do the talking, let the shadows hide the pain

But now the weight is heavy, and I'm lost out in the rain

It's hard to say I'm sorry, when I've held it back so long

To face what I have broken, admit that I was wrong

But maybe if I try to lay my pride aside

We could find a way back, through the tears we've cried

It's hard to say I'm sorry, admit what I've denied

But it's harder if I lose you, to say to you goodbye

I see the hurt within your eyes, like the dawn through darkest night

And I know I let you down, when I should've held you tight

But the truth feels like it's drowning, and it catches in my throat

Still I know that I've got to let these bitter words unfold

It's hard to say I'm sorry, to stand naked in my shame

To show you all the pieces of the one who's to blame

But if I take that step, and let go of my pride

Maybe we can find love on the other side

It's hard to say I'm sorry, admit what I've denied

But it's harder if I lose you, to say to you goodbye

I know that sorry's just a word, but it's all I have to give

And I hope that you can hear it, and maybe learn to forgive

I'll hold onto the moment, when I let my armor down

Just hoping that you're here, still waiting around

It's hard to say I'm sorry, but it's time that I let go

Of the walls that I've been building, the hurt I wouldn't show

And though the road ahead might be rough and long

I'll fight to make it right, and mend where I went wrong

It's hard to say I'm sorry, admit what I've denied

But it's harder if I lose you, to say to you goodbye

I'm here, I'm saying sorry, no more hiding in disguise

I'm ready for the truth now, to look into your eyes

It's hard to say I'm sorry, admit what I've denied

But it's harder if I lose you, to say to you goodbye
