I'M SORRY
C.N.Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As the sun set, we sat on the sofa
And talked about how she'd been doing so far
Then we got in the car and drove to the yard
Where she found them amidst all the dirt
Then I stared as she potted the bones that had rotted
And wiped both her hands on my shirt
Oh, the scariest word is the best one to use
When she's burying bones that she put in your shoes
For ten days until you were dancing in place
And she stared as the sweat rushed out of your phase
And she (And she) spilled the truth all over your shoes
A power improperly used
You built up your walls after they were attacked
And you walked your way back 'round a ten-mile track
By the time you got home you had turned ten years old
And I stared at you cold with your bag full of bones
And I said
I'm sorry it's not fair
I'm sorry it's not fair




I'm sorry it's not fair
I'm sorry it's not fair

Overall Meaning

The song "I'm Sorry" by C.N.Blue tells a story of regret and apologizing for mistakes made in a relationship. The opening verse paints a picture of a casual evening spent together, discussing how she has been doing. However, the tone shifts when they discover bones in the yard and she starts potting them. The singer realizes that the bones were put into their shoes and caused them to dance uncontrollably for ten days. It's unclear who put the bones there or why, but it's clear that the act was malicious.


The chorus repeats the refrain "I'm sorry it's not fair," expressing regret for the pain caused in the relationship. The second verse suggests that the singer built up emotional barriers after being hurt in the past. However, they eventually make their way back home with a bag full of bones, perhaps representing the emotional baggage they carry with them. The singer acknowledges their flaws and apologizes again, noting that it's not fair for the other person to have to deal with their issues.


Overall, the song is about recognizing and owning up to mistakes in a relationship, and attempting to make amends. The lyrics are somewhat cryptic and open-ended, allowing for different interpretations of the story being told.


Line by Line Meaning

As the sun set, we sat on the sofa
At the end of the day, we sat together and talked


And talked about how she'd been doing so far
We discussed how she had been coping up until now


Then we got in the car and drove to the yard
We then drove to the storing place we called 'the yard'


Where she found them amidst all the dirt
She found some bones buried there among the dirt


Then I stared as she potted the bones that had rotted
I watched her plant those decayed bones


And wiped both her hands on my shirt
She cleaned her hands on my shirt afterwards


Oh, the scariest word is the best one to use
Using the scariest word is most effective


When she's burying bones that she put in your shoes
When she had put the bones in your shoes and buried them


For ten days until you were dancing in place
For ten days, you danced without knowing about the bones


And she stared as the sweat rushed out of your phase
She observed as the sweat dripped from your face


And she (And she) spilled the truth all over your shoes
She confessed and revealed the truth about the bones in your shoes


A power improperly used
An authority that was abused


You built up your walls after they were attacked
You protected yourself after being hurt by others


And you walked your way back 'round a ten-mile track
You found your way back through a long and winding journey


By the time you got home you had turned ten years old
It took you so long that you were already ten years old by the time you got back


And I stared at you cold with your bag full of bones
I looked at you coldly holding a bag full of bones


And I said
And then I spoke


I'm sorry it's not fair
I'm apologizing that things aren't fair


I'm sorry it's not fair
I'm apologizing that things aren't fair


I'm sorry it's not fair
I'm apologizing that things aren't fair


I'm sorry it's not fair
I'm apologizing that things aren't fair

Do it do it do it now
Do it do it do it now)
뭐라고 난 네 말 모르겠어
나 싫다는 네 말을 모르겠어
완전히 미쳤어 정신차려 미쳤어
Are you crazy (are you crazy)
간다고 슬픈 척 연기 말고
떠난다고 핑계도 그만 말해
완전히 미쳤어 정신차려 미쳤어
Are you crazy (I'm really want you to get away)
네 마지막 말은 그 차가운 말은
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
사랑한다더니 나밖에 없다더니
Oh 그렇고 그런 거짓말이야
네 이별의 말은 그 당당한 말은
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
You tell me sorry (you tell me sorry)
모두가 변해도 너만은 아니란 말
Oh 누구나 말하는 그런 뻔한 말일뿐이야
뻔뻔한 너의 한 마디
웃기는 너의 한 마디 (I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
짜증난 너의 한 마디 화가 난 너의 한 마디
Oh oh back to me, I'm so crazy
나라고 너에게 전부다 준
나였는데 갑자기 떠난다고
완전히 미쳤어 정신차려 미쳤어
Are you crazy (are you crazy)
가라고 마음 다 떠난 사람
보낸다고 더 이상 잡지 않아
완전히 미쳤어 정신차려 미쳤어
Are you crazy (I'm really want you to get away)
네 마지막 말은 그 차가운 말은
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
사랑한다더니 나밖에 없다더니 oh
그렇고 그런 거짓말이야
네 이별의 말은 그 당당한 말은
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
You tell me sorry (you tell me sorry)
모두가 변해도 너만은 아니란 말 oh
누구나 말하는 그런 뻔한 말일 뿐이야
뻔뻔한 너의 한 마디 웃기는 너의 한 마디 (I'm sorry I'm sorry)
짜증난 너의 한 마디 화가 난 너의 한 마디
Oh oh back to me, I'm so crazy
네 말에 내가 또 무너져
네 말에 하늘도 무너져
악몽 같은 네 말 듣기 싫어 제발 oh no no
내 귓가에 울린 내 가슴에 박힌
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
사랑하지 말걸 마음 주지나 말걸 oh
이렇게 나만 아프잖아
내 두 눈을 적신 내 심장에 박힌
I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
You tell me sorry (you tell me sorry)
다시는 안 할래 죽어도 난 안 할래 oh
너에게 쉬웠던 그런 흔한 사랑 따위
잔인한 너의 한 마디 냉정한 너의 한 마디 (I'm sorry I'm sorry)
상처 난 너의 한 마디 쓰디 쓴 너의 한 마디
Oh oh back to me, I'm so crazy

정용화 목소리는 시원시원하고 칼칼한 면이 있어서 정말 매력적임 락 보컬에 최적인데 락 장르 많이 해줬으면 좋겠음. 더 신기한건 달달할땐 죽여주게 달달하고 알앤비 팝송에도 굉장히 최적이라는거ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 한국에서 몇 없는 대단한 보컬임
