Name: sorry (March 2005)
Duration: P00H01M12S
Description: I wanted to make pop songs, but I also had an odd affinity for weird noises. I think I titled this sorry because the alarm sounds, but also the lyrics were pretty damn depressive. In some ways it's a bit of a sorry to myself for being myself.

I wanted to make pop songs, but I also had an odd affinity for weird noises. I think I titled this sorry because the alarm sounds, but also the lyrics were pretty damn depressive. In some ways it's a bit of a sorry to myself for being myself.

lyrics

Into a crowded room
But no one sees that I’m afraid
Of every face that is here tonight
And how many times I’ll walk away
From someone special
Miss out on another chance at greatness
Or maybe just you

Affections for the affected
Objections to accidents
Well I am my own worst critic
And my harshest enemy

Picture me smiling
