Never Again
At Odds Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I couldn't be anything near,
I couldn't be anything close to you.
You engender in me fear,
Fear you don't believe that my heart is true
I'll never be alone again,
You couldn't be anything near,
You couldn't be anything close to me.
I engender in you fear,
Fear you don't believe that it's meant to be
I'll never be alone again,
That you loved me, makes me strong,
I'll always be your friend
Never be alone again,
That you loved me, makes me strong,
I'll always be your friend..
Come hell or high water,
Set my soul for the gypsies daughter,
Never be alone
For once I held her
In the song "Never Again" by At Odds, the lyrics reveal a complex relationship between two people who appear to have an intense connection but struggle to fully trust each other. The singer expresses their insecurities, claiming that they "couldn't be anything near" or "close" to the other person. They feel that the other person engenders a sense of fear in them, suggesting that their love is not reciprocated or trusted. Despite this, the singer declares that the love they once shared has made them stronger and that they will always be a friend to the other person.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful as the singer repeats the phrase "I'll never be alone again." This suggests a deep fear of being abandoned or rejected by the other person. However, the fact that this fear is not realized and that they continue to be friends indicates that there is still hope for them in the future. The final verse adds an element of mystery and intrigue to the song, as the singer references a "gypsy's daughter" and hints at a tantalizing but ultimately unattainable love.
Overall, the lyrics of "Never Again" are poignant and raw, expressing the complicated emotions that come with loving and losing someone. The singer's honesty and vulnerability make the song relatable and powerful, and the catchy melody adds to its emotional impact.
