Elsa Jones - Don't Pretend You're Sorry

(Verse 1)
You say the words, but they feel so empty,
Like a promise you were never gonna keep.
Your hands are shaking, but I know better,
I see the truth hiding underneath.

(Pre-Chorus)
You walked away, left me in pieces,
Now you stand here like nothing has changed.
But I've been through fire, I've learned the hard way,
And I won't fall for you again.

(Chorus)
So don't pretend you're sorry,
Don't stand there with tears in your eyes.
You never missed me, you never loved me,
You only regret what you left behind.
Now you're reaching for something,
But I've already closed the door.
So don't pretend you're sorry,
I don't believe you anymore.

(Verse 2)
I still remember the way you left me,
Not a single word, not a last goodbye.
Now you're back, saying that you need me,
But I won't be the fool this time.

(Pre-Chorus)
You walked away, left me in pieces,
Now you stand here like nothing has changed.
But I've been through fire, I've learned the hard way,
And I won't fall for you again.

(Chorus - Repeat)

(Bridge)
You had your chance, and you let it burn,
Now it's too late, it's my turn.
I'm stronger now, I've found my way,
And I don't need your lies to stay.

(Final Chorus - Softer, then building up)
So don't pretend you're sorry,
Don't stand there with tears in your eyes.
You never missed me, you never loved me,
You only regret what you left behind.
Now you're reaching for something,
But I've already closed the door.
So don't pretend you're sorry,
I don't believe you anymore.

(Outro - Fading away)
You say the words, but they feel so empty,
Like a promise you were never gonna keep…
