Жаль
Лента Lyrics

The lyrics of the song "Жаль" by Лента delve into themes of self-reflection, regret, self-doubt, and the consequences of allowing fear and uncertainty to dictate one's actions. The singer expresses a sense of disillusionment with their own choices and the realization that control does not always lead to success. The opening lines, "Как привело сюда / Заставило смотреть иначе," hint at a turning point or a moment of clarity that has forced the singer to reassess their perspective on life.

The lyrics explore the internal struggle of lying to oneself and the consequences of not confronting one's true emotions and shortcomings. The lines "Так много лгать себе / Завтра будут нарушены мои планы" convey the internal conflict of denying one's own truth and the inevitable disappointment that comes with ignoring one's inner voice. The repetition of "Почему?" emphasizes a sense of confusion and frustration about the choices that have been made.

The chorus of the song serves as a poignant reflection on the regrets and missed opportunities that come with self-doubt and fear of failure. The repeated apology in "Мне очень жаль, что ты прячешь лицо / Не веря в себя, оставишь все на потом" captures a sense of empathy towards oneself for not believing in one's abilities and hesitating to pursue one's dreams. The imagery of staring out of a window at night symbolizes a sense of longing and contemplation, highlighting the emotional depth of the singer's inner struggles.

As the song progresses, there is a shift towards a more empowered outlook, with the acknowledgment that mistakes are a part of growth and learning. The lines "Права на ошибки больше нет / Скоро нападу на этот след / Лена из двадцатого узнает" signify a willingness to confront past errors and take control of one's destiny. The mention of "Лена из двадцатого" adds a personal touch to the narrative, suggesting a specific individual who will take charge of their own narrative and face the consequences of their actions. The repetition of "Вспоминай" at the end serves as a reminder to reflect on one's past experiences and use them as a source of strength and clarity in moving forward.
