Wolfcolony set out to deliver a unique blend of electronic indie pop, characterized by lush, lo-fi atmospheres with a really organic, candle-lit feel. For an act so centered on an electronic music work frame, it might be really tempting to indulge into unnecessary over-editing and over-production, but wolfcolony chose instead to adorn their songs with relatively bare arrangements dominated by a few, high-impact elements that offer a roomy, massive, yet intimate and honest soundscape.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
[?] i dont getting older
... even if you gone you...
all i need is a chance to forgiven, i can make my mind up dont wanna giving up.
all i need is a chance to forgiven, i can keep my mind shut dont wanna give it up.
dont wanna give it up .
this is it? do ill die? its decision to the time.
i have learned that love is a compromise
all i need is a chance to forgiven, i cant make my mind up dont wanna giving up
all i need is a chance to forgiven i can keep my mind shut dont wanna giving up
dont say yes, dont say yes, dont say yes
ill keep it in myself
all i need is a chance to forgiven i cant make my mind up dont wanna giving up
if you say that you will make me ... i need you to say that. you can break me but i can break you too
but i won't, but i won't, but i won't, but i won't
you won't forgiven
all i need is a chance to forgiven...
The song Forgiven by Wolf Colony depicts the singer's search for forgiveness and acceptance from their significant other. The opening lines, "rest your shoulder, I don't gettin' older," suggests that the singer yearns for the comfort that their partner brings, but is also struck by the realization that time is running out. Even though their partner might have left, they still hold onto the hope that they would be forgiven. The singer emphasizes that all they need is a chance to be forgiven, to make things right, and to not give up on their relationship.
The lines "this is it? do ill die? its decision to the time. i have learned that love is a compromise," reveal the singer's turmoil as they contemplate what their future holds. They acknowledge that love requires giving and taking, and the decision they make now will ultimately determine the course of their relationship.
Towards the end of the song, the singer pleads with their partner not to break them but offers that they could do the same. However, they choose not to as all they need is a chance to be forgiven. The repetition of the phrase "don't wanna give it up" emphasizes the singer's desperation to hold onto their love and make amends.
Overall, the song showcases the vulnerability and fragility of love, and the need for forgiveness and grace in a relationship.
