Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now that I've come around
To everything you said
hoping you can forgive me
See those empty promises

We're only looking for a way out
When you chose to choose me
No I Couldn't really process
In your moment of need

Don't talk over just listen

No I
Don't think that
we Could ever be the same
Even though the situations changed
Said we
Both
Tried to maintain
Educate and elevate our ways

(Don't you see)
I just want to try to make a mends
I just wanna make a stand ,.
Yh
Just a healthy
relationship
You're my grace and I'm saving it






Don't talk over just listen

Overall Meaning

In the opening lines of "Apology," the singer reflects on a journey of personal growth and understanding after wrestling with their actions and decisions. The phrase "Now that I've come around to everything you said" suggests a moment of enlightenment or realization, where the singer acknowledges the validity of the other person's feelings and words. There’s a sense of contrition as the singer expresses a desire for forgiveness, recognizing the weight of "empty promises" made in the past. This phrase encapsulates feelings of regret and disappointment; promises that were perhaps once perceived as meaningful have led to disillusionment. The singer’s introspective tone indicates an awareness of the hurt inflicted, urging a recognition that healing is contingent upon humility and accountability.


The next verse delves into the complexities of relationships, contemplating the struggle of duality experienced during critical moments. The lines "We're only looking for a way out" signal a mutual desire to escape from the burdens of misunderstandings and emotional turmoil. The relationship dynamic is further complicated by the idea that when the other person "chose to choose" the singer, it was not fully appreciated or comprehended. Here, the singer grapples with the realization that they struggled to process the other person's vulnerability during their "moment of need." This suggests that the singer may have been emotionally unavailable or oblivious at a crucial time, leading to feelings of guilt and confusion about their roles within the relationship.


As the lyrics progress, the singer articulates a desire for effective communication and a plea for the other person to “just listen.” This directive underscores the importance of truly hearing one another within a relationship, rather than engaging in conversations that become combative or dismissive. The internal recognition expressed—"No, I don't think that we could ever be the same"—acknowledges that the past has irrevocably altered their connection and self-awareness. However, the singer remains hopeful, asserting that they both "tried to maintain" the relationship and elevate its quality despite inherent challenges. This desire for growth suggests a commitment to learning from past mistakes with the aim of fostering a healthier partnership.


Ultimately, the refrain “I just want to try to make amends” encapsulates the core of the song’s message. Here, the singer expresses a sincere wish to restore the connection and repair the damage done. The line “Just a healthy relationship” emphasizes that the goal is not merely to return to the status quo, but to cultivate a bond characterized by mutual respect, understanding, and support. The concluding metaphor “You’re my grace and I'm saving it” poignantly illustrates the other person’s significance in the singer's life, elevating them to a near-sacred status. This culminates in a hopeful plea for reconciliation, acknowledging that while the past cannot be undone, there is potential for growth and healing if both parties commit to open dialogue and genuine effort. The insistence on listening rather than talking over one another serves as a poignant reminder of the foundational need for empathy in rebuilding trust and connection.
