about

“My apology” is a song about life regrets. It’s about wishing I could go back and start again, trying to avoid the mistakes I’ve made. I think everyone goes through this at some point in life. It is a song that represents an apology to myself and to everyone I’ve ever hurt.

I’ve stumbled my way through life in to a situation where I finally feel secure and comfortable in my own skin. But for the first 25 years it wasn't so easy. This song touches on my deep rooted insecurities and sadness at my past, it is a bitter-sweet song.

I’d not change a thing about my current situation, but there are so many regrets, so many things I wish I could amend, so many words I should have said, (and thousands more I definitely shouldn’t have said) on my journey to get here.

lyrics

I’m sorry for the times I caused the anguish in your eyes
And I regret the pain I caused with my capacity to lie
But I need you, to say you’ll forgive me, and love me

I’m sorry to my family who needed more from me
Every second I ignored you is a dose of misery
But I’ve promise, that I'll keep my promises, I'm learning

I’d love to answer, all of your questions
With my deepest sincerity
I hope you listen, with compassion
And sympathy

I’ll cry and I’ll bleed if I want to
But fold it all inside, somewhere you’ll never find
So all you’ll see is grey behind my eyes
The circles I walk are so lonely
So come and hold me, try to unfold me
And colour in these heart shaped pencil lines

I think about life, and wish I could take it from the start
And my heart races so fast I fear my chest will break apart
Because I remember
The decisions that broke me, and changed me

I wish I could reflect back on my childhood with joy
Or look at sepia toned photographs with love at life gone by
But it hurts, there’s nothing back there but sadness

I’d love to be the man I could have
And not this tower of broken skin
Not this drawer of broken things
Nor this peasant posed as king
