Silent Despair
Anna Abreu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I just don't get it, typical
But when I think it through it's oh so clear
Sometimes I ask for too much but now I know
Cause when I think it through it's only fear

No I couldn't stand losing u
How could I ever do
Don't even know if it's true

What if there's no sun shining after the rain?
What if there's no laughter to conquer the pain?
I don't wanna crawl in this silent despair
But if it all ends, how could it be fair?

Nowadays I feel the same as I always used to do
Everyday I've had the doubt of you walking out the door
I didn't want anyone else, porque sempre foste tu
I try to keep my confidence, but it's all so insecure

No I couldn't stand losing u
How could I ever do
Don't even know if it's true

What if there's no sun shining after the rain?
What if there's no laughter to conquer the pain?
I don't wanna crawl in this silent despair
But if it all ends, how could it be fair?

Whatever you say or do, I always appreciate it
But now I feel like our love is filled with hatin'
Don't think it is fair
This silent despair

And if there's no sun shining after the rain
And if there's no laughter to conquer the pain




I don't wanna crawl in this silent despair
But if it all ends, how could it be fair?

But after contemplating the situation, everything becomes obvious

I sometimes have high expectations, but I realize it's due to my apprehensions


Cause when I think it through it's only fear
There's always the underlying feeling of dread that clouds my judgment


No I couldn't stand losing u
The thought of losing you terrifies me


How could I ever do
It's impossible for me to handle if it ever happens


Don't even know if it's true
I don't even want to entertain the possibility

Everyday, I have the fear of losing you


I didn't want anyone else, porque sempre foste tu
I didn't want anyone else because it was always you who I wanted and loved


I try to keep my confidence, but it's all so insecure
I try to stay confident, but I'm still unsure and unsteady


Whatever you say or do, I always appreciate it
I value everything you say or do for me


But now I feel like our love is filled with hatin'
But now, it seems like our love only has animosity and discord


Don't think it is fair
I don't think it's just


This silent despair
This feeling of hopelessness and emptiness

Anna sings a few Portuguese words in this song. She has perfect Portuguese accent. "... porque sempre foste tu" "... because it was always you"

Sophia Loren

She's half Portuguese

raul kannela

best song from anna abreu. i love this song

Catinkontti

En tajuu kyl miksei Anna lyöny läpi maailmanlaajuisesti - tää biisi uppoaa vieläkin kaikkien näiden vuosien jälkeen

Venla

Catinkontti Nooh, jotta löisi läpi oikeasti maailmanlaajuisesti (ei pelkästään paikoitellen Euroopassa), täytyisi kaikenkaikkiaan kuulua suuruusluokassa samaan kastiin Rihannan, Katy Perryn, Ariana Granden, Britney Spearsin yms. kanssa. Että jos vertaa, niin ei Anna Abreu ole tarpeeksi kova päästäkseen tähän seuraan. Ja ihan mitenkään dissaamatta, maailmantähteys vaatii vain aika paljon enemmän.

Batearedfoxx

no ehän sen musiikki oo enään tällästä

Jenni Salmi

Kaunis biisi ja hieno, rauhallinen video + nätit värit!

Delirious Ruis

Tää on parhautta vielä nykyäänkin. Fani alusta asti
