I'm sorry
Human Temple Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One of these days I'm gonna say what
I really feel inside.
I have to get these wheels on the road again.
I feel I've stayed too long but you don't understand,
There's a world outside an' it's screamin' out my name.

[Bridge:]
I don't expect you to understand, you're just a woman.
So I make it real easy, just watch me when I go.

[Chorus:]
I'm sorry but I'm not gonna love you forever,
I'm caught between two women and their lies.
I didn't mean to hurt you but this is the last goodbye,
Just like you before, I'm walking away...

From the start there was something wrong deep in our hearts,
We both knew it but we didn't want to see.
Two hearts together always meant to be, yeah right,
I wanna see how you make it work.

[Bridge]
[Chorus]




[Solo]
[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Human Temple's song "I'm Sorry" express the singer's conflict between his desire for freedom and his commitment to a woman he cannot fully love. He begins by acknowledging that he has been holding back his true feelings, but he now needs to move forward and explore the world outside. He feels that his current partner cannot understand his need for exploration, and he expects her to simply watch him leave. The chorus shows his regret over hurting her, but he maintains that he cannot stay in a relationship where he is torn between two women and their lies. The final lines of the song suggest that he has similar experiences in the past, where he has walked away from a relationship that was not right for him.


The lyrics suggest that the singer's relationship has been troubled from the beginning, but he and his partner have avoided acknowledging the issues. They may have felt pressure from society or their own expectations to stay together or to put on a facade of happiness. The singer, however, cannot deny his longing for something more or his feeling that the relationship is not meant to last. The song is a raw and honest confession of his struggle to balance his commitment and his personal growth.
