Anymore
Send Request Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the stupid things that we'd say
I didn't really mean it that way
But you know I won't say I'm sorry
I miss the times where we used to hang around
Talk about how we hate this town, bring it up
‘til we break it down
But you don't and you won't ever think about the repercussions
Cause I know, friend or foe, we've got to find our way out of this
Mess we've been making
That's holding us back from
The one thing that keeps us alive
Hey! What's the point of dreaming if I don't get to live out my life?
I'm watching the time past me by
And what's the point in leaving, when you're the one who's running away
It's funny how things never change
It's like you always do what your told, but what's the point of growing old if I don't see you around here anymore
Never thought it'd end up this way
Take a look around here and say
You wanted it to turn out this way
But we'll just keep on moving on
‘Cause time moves along
When giving up and growing old are gone
I'll catch you on the other side of
Making mistakes, thanks for
Not giving up on
The one thing that's proving them wrong
Hey! What's the point of dreaming if I don't get to live out my life?
I'm watching the time past me by
And what's the point in leaving, if you're the one who's running away
It's funny how things never change
It's like you always do what your told, but what's the point of growing old if I don't see you around here anymore
ANYMORE
We're criticized and leaving everything behind because
We're doing what we're into. What we're into
Without a doubt you know we're making up our minds because
We're doing what we're into. What we're into
Hey! What's the point of dreaming if I don't get to live out my life?
I'm watching the time past me by
And what's the point in leaving, if you're the one who's running away
It's funny how things never change
It's like you always do what your told, but what's the point of growing old if I don't see you around here anymore
The song Anymore by Send Request is a reflective piece about the bittersweet feelings of growing up and moving on from friendships that used to define our lives. The song's protagonist admits to having made stupid mistakes in the past, but feels unable to apologize for them now that they have drifted apart from their friend. The lyrics express a sense of nostalgia for the good times they shared while also acknowledging that they have both outgrown each other and must move on.
The chorus of the song is particularly poignant, questioning the value of dreaming if we don't get to live out our lives, and wondering what the point of growing old is if we don't have the people who used to matter to us around anymore. This sentiment is reinforced by the line "I'm watching the time past me by," which speaks to the fleeting nature of time and how we can never go back to relive the moments we've missed.
The song's bridge provides a glimmer of hope, acknowledging that mistakes have been made but thanking the friend for not giving up on the one thing that's proving them wrong. This line suggests that the singer has perhaps found new purpose or meaning in their life after their friendship fell apart, and that they are grateful for the lessons they've learned along the way.
Overall, Anymore is a heartfelt reflection on the nature of friendship and how it evolves over time. It speaks to anyone who has ever grown apart from someone they used to be close to, and the complex emotions that come with moving on while still holding onto the memories of the past.
