Neverender
A Thousand Falling Skies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So the fires won't die.
But we'll tip toe on broken glass.
To see if we still bleed because bleeding would mean we're still alive.
How can you say.
These words meant nothing.
How can you say.
I never loved you.
I'd rather live without.
And this noose is so tight.
I'm barely holding on.
And these wrists will mark my silence.
And these tears will rinse them clean.
And these wrists will mark my silence.
And these tears will rinse them clean.
And I can't remember the last time the sunlight shined so bright.
I'm thinking of all the things I'd say to you if I ever saw you again.
With empty hearts we dance tonight.
So the fires won't die.
But all along we'll tip toe on glass.
To see if we still bleed.
'Cause bleeding would mean we're still alive.
There is nothing left here.
How can you say.
These words meant nothing.
How can you say.
I never loved you.
This was so beautiful.
This was so beautiful to me.
The song "Neverender" by A Thousand Falling Skies is a poignant song that revolves around emptiness, pain, love, and memory. The song opens with the lines "With empty hearts we dance tonight, so the fires won't die, But we'll tip toe on broken glass, to see if we still bleed because bleeding would mean we're still alive." The lines imply that the characters in the song, perhaps two lovers, are trying to hold on to the flame of love by dancing together, even though their hearts are empty. The metaphor of treading on broken glass depicts the pain and difficulty they are enduring to keep their love alive. They want to feel the pain because it would indicate they are still alive.
The song also explores the theme of heartbreak with the lines "How can you say, These words meant nothing, How can you say, I never loved you." The singer of the song seems to be pleading with their lover not to dismiss their love and the relationship that they shared. The lines "Love is a four letter word, I'd rather live without," almost contradict the previous statement, hinting that love has hurt them too much.
The chorus of the song reiterates the idea of dancing with empty hearts to keep the fire of love alive. The song ends with a bittersweet note, "This was so beautiful to me," indicating that even though the relationship is over, the singer remembers the beauty that it once held.
Overall, the song beautifully captures the essence of holding on to love even when it is painful and the memories that remain when it is over.
