In this alternative rock piano ballad, Swift confronts a lover that painted her to be incredible and great, however, after an amount of his constant apologies, she comes to her sence and now acknowledges everything he said to be sorry for wasn’t sincere, as well his character.
A remix version for the television episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation that Swift made an appearance in was later released.
[Verse 1]
All this time, I was wastin', hopin' you would come around
I've been givin' out chances every time and all you do is let me down
And it's taken me this long, baby, but I've figured you out
And you're thinkin' we'll be fine again, but not this time around
[Chorus]
You don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
Don't wanna hurt anymore
And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you, baby, like I did before
You're not sorry
No, no, no, no
[Verse 2]
You're lookin' so innocent, I might believe you if I didn't know
Could've loved you all my life if you hadn't lеft me waitin' in the cold
And you've got your sharе of secrets and I'm tired of bein' last to know, oh
And now you're askin' me to listen 'cause it's worked each time before
[Chorus]
But you don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
Don't wanna hurt anymore
And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you, baby, like I did before
You're not sorry
No, no
You're not sorry
No, no
[Bridge]
You had me crawlin' for you, honey, and it never would've gone away, no
You used to shine so bright, but I watched all of it fade
[Chorus]
So you don't have to call anymore
I won't pick up the phone
This is the last straw
There's nothin' left to beg for
And you can tell me that you're sorry
But I don't believe you, baby, like I did before
You're not sorry
No, no
You're not sorry
No, no
[Outro]
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, no, no, no
No, no

Taylor stated
“You’re Not Sorry” is about this guy that kept apologizing and kept doing the same thing over and over again and after a while you just have stand up to that person and say, ‘You’re not sorry. At all … bye.’
It is about this guy who turned out to not be who I thought he was. He came across as Prince Charming. Well, it turned out prince charming had a lot of secrets that he didn’t tell me about. And one by one, I would figure them out. I would find out who he really was. I wrote this when I was at the breaking point of, ‘You know what? Don’t even think that you can keep on hurting me.’ It was to a point where I had to walk away.
