Sorry Revisited
The Sights Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You always take the pain
Always thought that you were stronger
Guess not today

I always tried to see through
The face I knew
That was not you
I've had enough of all your worries
I always thought that you were sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry




Sorry
Sorry

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sorry Revisited by The Sights delve into the complexities of relationships where one person always seems to be taking on the emotional burden. The first line “You always take the pain” sets the tone for the rest of the song, establishing the idea that one person in the relationship carries more than their share of the emotional baggage. The second line, “Always thought that you were stronger,” seems to challenge the idea that strength equates to being able to handle everything without breaking. The subsequent line “Guess not today” is delivered with a sense of weariness, as though the singer has reached their limit of constantly having to be the strong one.


The second verse begins with the singer attempting to separate the person they thought they knew from the person they see before them. The line “I always tried to see through the face I knew” suggests that the singer was aware of the emotional strain their partner was under, but possibly underestimated the extent of it. The final part of the song evokes a sense of sadness and resignation, with the repetition of the word “Sorry” almost carrying a sense of finality and a recognition that the relationship has reached its conclusion.
