A decade's worth of damage done in unsaid words
(We both know that's not what you deserved)
There was always love, it was there but never spoken of
(You held on when I was not enough)

It's a shame, this has taken me so long to say

Hey Rachel, I'm sorry (sorry)
I was younger and scared when you needed me (needed me)
I was selfish and stubborn, a terrible brother (terrible brother)
You don't have to forgive me
Hey Rachel, I'm sorry

I always knew that I was responsible to guide you through
(But I was blind when looking out for you)
I was self-absorbed but I try not to be anymore
(I put your diary back in your drawer)

It's a shame, this has taken me so long to say

Hey Rachel, I'm sorry (sorry)
I was younger and scared when you needed me (needed me)
I was selfish and stubborn, a terrible brother (terrible brother)
You don't have to forgive me
Hey Rachel, I'm sorry (sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry)

It's a shame this has taken me so long to say to you

Hey Rachel, I'm sorry
I was younger and scared when you needed me
I was selfish and stubborn, a terrible brother
You don't have to forgive me

Hey Rachel, I'm sorry (sorry)
I was younger and scared when you needed me (needed me)
I was selfish and stubborn, a terrible brother (terrible brother)
You don't have to forgive me
No, you don't have to forgive me
Hey Rachel, I'm sorry

Hey Rachel, I'm sorry
