Exploring the complexities of past relationships and regret, this composition delves into the realm of remorse and yearning for a second chance. The protagonist appears to be comparing himself unfavorably to his ex-lover's new partner, highlighting his own shortcomings in their relationship. His pleas for her return are tinged with self-deprecation and an understanding that he may not have been the best partner. This narrative is further emphasized by the repetition of "I've been feeling it too", suggesting a shared emotional turmoil. However, the song also ventures into themes of unchanging patterns and inevitable mistakes, hinting at the futility of returning to a failed relationship. In essence, this piece serves as a poignant reflection on love lost and lessons learned. #Remorse #LostLove
