"Apricot" by Jack Stauber is a song that seems to explore themes of monotony, dissatisfaction, and perhaps the struggle to find meaning or excitement in a repetitive existence. The lyrics suggest a sense of boredom and restlessness, with lines like "I was happy when I was bored" indicating a paradoxical relationship with boredom. The repeated refrain of "It's all the same feel" reflects a sense of sameness or routine that the speaker is trapped within. They seem to be searching for something different or more fulfilling, as indicated by phrases like "Living on borders" and "Good giving? Fine, the gold." The imagery in the song is somewhat abstract and open to interpretation. References to crawling, grabbing hands, walking streets, and biting matches could symbolize the mundane or even oppressive aspects of daily life. Overall, "Apricot" appears to capture the feeling of being stuck in a cycle of monotony and longing for something more, while also hinting at the difficulty of breaking free from that cycle.
