From the recording Ondoezik.2: The Sharpest Shade
In the song 'Apology', the lyrics convey a sense of inner struggle and pain despite outwardly showing a radiant light. The shadows symbolize the lingering darkness and bleeding wounds that persist in the form of scars, while the inability to give one's life signifies a deep emotional sacrifice that was beyond reach.
Lyrics
Your light
It radiates
But the shadows are so long
I never thought
That the bleeding would go on
I am here
I am here
I’ve been here
I’ve always been here
Reaching forward
No
No styptic sweep
Of the minute hand
The hour glass
It only filled
With the quickest sand
I am here
I am here
I’ve been here
I’ve always been here
Reaching forward
I gave you everything
But I couldn’t give you my life
