There's an End
Holly Golightly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Words weren't so clear,
Only echos passing through the night.
The lines on my face,
Your fingers once traced,
Fading reflection of what was.
Thoughts re-arrange,
Familar now strange,
All my skin is drifting on the wind.
Spring brings the rain,
With winter comes pain,
Every season has an end.
I try to see through the disguise,
But the clouds were there,
Blocking out the sun (the sun).
Thoughts re-arrange,
Familar now strange,
All my skin is drifting on the wind.
Spring brings the rain,
With winter comes pain,
Every season has an end.
There's an end,
There's an end,
There's an end,
There's an end,
There's an end
The song "There's an End" by Holly Golightly is a melancholy track that speaks about the ephemeral nature of life, seasons, relationships, and emotions. The lyrics connect their listeners to the idea that everything comes to an end, and that it is essential to appreciate and cherish every moment we have as they are ephemeral. The song starts with the words "Words disappear, words weren't so clear, only echos passing through the night." The opening lines depict how communication is vulnerable because words are not always enough to convey how one truly feels. Sometimes words disappear, get lost in translation or not meaningful enough.
Holly Golightly speaks about how fleeting life can be, how it passes by quickly, and how one fails to realize it until it's gone. The lines on the singer's face, once traced by her lover's fingers, are now fading reflections of what once was. The chorus of the song drives home the message with its repetition of the phrase, "Every season has an end." This line serves as a stark reminder that everything and everyone passes away someday, so it is vital to treasure special moments in life.
In the second verse, the singer says, "Thoughts rearrange, familiar now strange, all my skin is drifting on the wind." The lines highlight how emotions and thoughts change as time goes by, leaving behind only memories that are often incomplete. The song's mood is bittersweet yet meaningful, and the lyrics encourage listeners to live their life to the fullest and to cherish the experiences they have had.

Words disappear,
Expressions of emotion disappear
Words weren't so clear,
Communicating effectively was difficult
Only echoes passing through the night.
Unanswered calls of help that vanished into thin air
The lines on my face,
Wrinkles on the artist's face
Your fingers once traced,
A partner's touch on the artist's face
Fading reflection of what was.
The memories of the past are slowly disintegrating
Thoughts rearrange,
The mental state is changing
Familiar now strange,
What was once known, now seems foreign
All my skin is drifting on the wind.
The experiences had are left behind as the artist moves on
Spring brings the rain,
New beginnings are accompanied by trials
With winter comes pain,
Endings are painful
Every season has an end.
The period of time allowed for growth and reflection will eventually close
I try to see through the disguise,
The singer attempts to see the truth beneath the facade
But the clouds were there,
The obstacles were too great and too numerous
Blocking out the sun (the sun).
Blocking out hope and possibility
There's an end,
The inevitability of closures and goodbyes
There's an end,
Realization that things must come to an end
There's an end,
The finality of all things must be accepted
There's an end,
Acknowledging the transience of all things
There's an end
Coming to terms with the inevitability of endings
