“Sorry” is een emotionele ballade over het vergeten en mee omgaan van pijn tijdens en na een relatie.
Het nummer is een goed voorbeeld van de nieuwe weg die de band heeft ingeslagen met het album Control.
Zanger Eloi beschrijft de nieuwe weg als volgt:
In het begin was het voor mij in de band erg...
[Verse 1]
Sorry for the road that I won't take
For the words that I won't say
For the love that I won't give
Sorry for the heart that I won't show
For the lengths that I won't go
For the life that you won't live
Sorry that I opened up my arms
You would never reach in time
Before they closed again
[Chorus]
You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from
[Verse 2]
Sorry for the oath that I won't take
For the vows that I will break
For the role that I won't play
Sorry that I'm raising up my walls
And whenever you reached over
You are thrown back to the start
[Chorus]
You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up...
[Bridge]
From the colour I would bring
To ending up again
Opening darkness
I wanted to hold you back
From the colour I would bring
To ending up again
Opening darkness
I wanted to hold you back
[Chorus]
You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from
