Sorry Lyrics
It happened fast
Like a fired gun
Bleeding out
Then it was done
[Chorus]
There was the end
I couldn't find, found too late
[Verse 2]
Let me go back
Show me the eyes
So I'd really know
Just what it looks like
[Chorus]
There was the end
I couldn't find, found too late
[Outro]
And oh, didn't want to believe such a monster in me
And I know, I've always known, in the end I'd be sorry
And that's all I am now, and it's all I can be
Is sorry

This was just an apology and a moment of self-reflection after the realization in “.” that your choices amount to something, that you hurt other people as well as yourself. This section is about finally looking at something that you’ve been pushing away for so long, and what that means in terms of processing. In therapy, I’ve cried so much I’ve wanted to vomit, and I wanted to express how that feels. This track has all this swirling, then it naturally settles. It truly is my favorite moment. It’s like something’s cleared. You’re ready to start again.
