I Owe You This Ft. Twin Shadow | Chad Valley
I’m still listening to this album. But now it’s this song that’s on repeat.
I find this song fascinating. Well…maybe the song’s not that fascinating, but my reaction to it is. I’m fascinated that I can identify with it so much. Usually I hear songs like these and I feel they’re being sung by asshole guys who did something stupid, hurtful, and cowardly and are now emotionally and unapologetically apologetic.
But today I’m listening to it and I feel like the words are coming from me. I feel like I’m the one who feels bad for not apologizing for something I don’t think I should apologize for. But not that bad. Because I won’t.
Because although in the grand scheme of things, I feel people are owed…I dunno…respect, acknowledgment, response…sometimes…it’s just not my debt to pay.
