Apologies is the second single for the upcoming 8th Three Days Grace album
According to drummer Neil Sanderson, “This song’s a mirror for anyone who feels like they’re too far gone to be loved. How it hurts more knowing someone did love you—just not enough to save you from yourself. Apologies don’t...
[Verse 1: Matt Walst]
When every thought says, "Jump"
When every thought says, "Just give up"
How else can I survive
Another day of bein' alive?
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Walst]
Caffeine, nicotine, amphetamines
Runnin' through my bloodstream
Trauma, drama, another vodka
Turn into a monster
Damage, baggage, turn savage
Do it every day, call it a habit
You want problems, I got 'em
Keep on sinkin', never hit bottom
[Chorus: Adam Gontier]
All the love you tried to give to me was never enough, no
I'm sorry, but no amount of love could ever be
Ever enough, ever enough
I'm sorry, but
[Verse 2: Adam Gontier]
When every thought says, "Run"
When I can't stand to be someone
Who's done the things I've done
I'll blame it all on bein' young
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Walst & Adam Gontier]
Give me caffeine, nicotine, amphetamines
Runnin' through my bloodstream
Trauma, drama, another vodka
Turn into a monster
Damage, baggage, turn savage
Do it every day, call it a habit
You want problems, I got 'em
Keep on sinkin', never hit bottom
[Chorus: Adam Gontier & Matt Walst, Adam Gontier]
All the love you tried to give to me was never enough, no
I'm sorry, but no amount of love could ever be
Ever enough, ever enough
I'm sorry, but there's no savin' me
I'm sorry, I'm all apologies
All the love you tried to give to me
Was never enough, never enough
I'm sorry, but
[Bridge: Adam Gontier]
I'm holdin' anger like a hammer
Leavin' all who love me fractured
I'm so ashamed, I can't erase it
Nothin' you can do is ever gonna change it
(It's never enough)
[Chorus: Adam Gontier, Matt Walst, Both]
All the love you tried to give to me was never enough
No amount of love could ever be
Ever enough, ever enough
I'm sorry, but there's no savin' me
I'm sorry, I'm all apologies
All the love you tried to give to me
Was never enough, never enough
I'm sorry, but

Adam Gontier:
Our drummer Neil [Sanderson] started this one with Dan Lancaster, one of the producers of this album. Dan brought in a few different things that we wouldn’t normally do when we’re writing, and I think you can hear that on ‘Apologies’. It’s a little bit outside the norm for us, because...
