I Apologize Lyrics


One day the shadows will surround me
Someday the days will come to end
Sometime I’ll have to face the real me
Somehow I’ll have to learn to bend
And now I see clearly

All these times I simply stepped aside
I watched but never really listened...

    This song was during the time Ivan was starting sobriety, he could drink I've seen it, and this is the largest 8-Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all, that was probably ever given.

    I believe he is searching for an answer a higher power and realized it doesn't come in the form of alcohol and drugs.

    The video and the song are two different beasts. In the song it talks about the first stage of addiction recovery. Awareness. The line “for know I’ve accepted who I’ve become”, and even the first line “one day the shadows will surround me, sometime I’ll have to accept who I’ve become”. These are him saying I have a problem,I’m sorry about not listening as everyone left him.He stepped aside so the people who loved him didn’t have to see him. In the video he sees people who have died doing what he has done and he breaks down. He’s in denial. However in the end while he’s digging his grave he realizes that he doesn’t have to end it like this so he gets rid of the problem. This is his early recovery.

    I think this is about realizing all the wrong you have done and trying to write all these wrongs. As I look back even on these last few months after listening to this song I see what the song means to me as I need to try and right all my wrongs

    I believe it is about soldiers that go to war and come back they are never really back so they are sorry that they are not really there for there family

    It's about realizing the things in life he had done wrong and is trying to become better.

    i think it about Ivan coming to grips with all his flaws and is reaching out to his fans, friends, and family for help
