Spóźniony
Edyta Bartosiewicz Lyrics

The lyrics of Edyta Bartosiewicz's song Spóźniony (which translates to "Late") express the sense of internal turmoil and suppressed emotions while facing a painful separation. The opening lines suggest that there is no one waiting for delayed words, and the dissonant sounds in the background reflect the tense and uneasy feeling. The singer resolves not to scream, cry or beg despite not wanting to part with the person. Her shoulders are tense, but they do not protect her, and she tightens her throat, yet she feels powerless. The repetition of the lines "Nie będę krzyczeć, Nie będę płakać" (I won't scream, I won't cry) reiterate the inner struggle to control and contain the emotions that are threatening to spill over.

The chorus's nonsensical syllables, "Doo goo," creates a haunting and melancholic tune without any distinct meaning, reinforcing the inexpressible nature of the feelings that are hard to articulate. The repetition of the phrase also serves as a coping mechanism to calm down and detach from the situation. The song's overall mood is contemplative, introspective, and restrained, representing the complex and conflicting emotions that often accompany a break-up.
