All Apologies (Home Demo) Lyrics

[Refrain]
What else could I be? All apologies
What else could I write? I don't want a fight
What else could I say? All the words are gray
What else could I be? All apologies

[Chorus]
In the sun, in the sun, I feel as one
In the sun, in the sun
Marry, marry

[Refrain]
What else could I be? All apologies
What else could I write? I don't want a fight
What else could I say? All the words are gray
What else could I be? All apologies

[Chorus]
In the sun, in the sun, I feel as one
In the sun, in the sun
Marry, marry
Marry, marry
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

The last track on the With Lights Out and also the last Acoustic boombox recording.

This is a early version of the song recorded probably in 1991 or 1992 in Olympia or Seattle Washington

The only really visible difference is in the lyrics, but still remain the same structure and the outro of the final studio version.
