It's Not Over
Avril Lavigne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I've got nothing left to lose
I'm so tired of circular motions
They leave me dizzy and confused
My heart, oh no, is not your revolving door
I get stuck spinning and spinning and spinning
Oh, 'til I collapse on the floor
I forget what we're fighting about
Oh, you come and you leave
Shame on me for believing every word out of your mouth
Tell me it's over
If it's really over
'Cause it don't feel like it's over whenever you're closing the door, no
So tell me it's over
Darling you
Oh, you taste so bittersweet
Can't get you off of my lips
You're dangerous when you take me like a thief
Oh and I
I should let this go
I try and I try, I try
But why, why won't you leave me alone?
Tell me it's over
If it's really over
'Cause it don't feel like it's over whenever you're closing the door, no
So tell me it's over
If it's really over
'Cause every time you come over it doesn't feel over no more
So tell me it's over
I keep on leaving the light on
Hoping to find something else, oh
I've played the fool for the last time
I just can't do this myself
Tell me it's over
If it's really over
'Cause it don't feel like it's over whenever you're closing the door, no
Tell me it's over
If it's really over
'Cause every time you come over it doesn't feel over no more
So tell me it's over

Line by Line Meaning
I ain’t playing no games
I am serious and not messing around
'Cause I’ve got nothing left to lose
I have reached a point where there is nothing left for me to lose
I'm so tired of circular motions
I am exhausted of going around in circles
They leave me dizzy and confused
This process makes me feel disoriented and perplexed
My heart, oh no, is not your revolving door
My heart is not a place for you to enter and exit as you please
I get stuck spinning and spinning and spinning
I become trapped in a cycle of spinning and cannot escape
Oh, 'til I collapse on the floor
This cycle exhausts me to the point of collapse
But every time that you touch me
Despite the above, whenever you touch me
I forget what we’re fighting about
I become unable to remember what was making us fight
Oh, you come and you leave
You are in and out of my life
Shame on me for believing every word out of your mouth
I feel foolish for taking everything you say at face value
Tell me it’s over
Please confirm that this relationship is over
If it’s really over
I need to know if this relationship is actually over
‘Cause it don’t feel like it’s over whenever you’re closing the door, no
When you close the door, it still feels like the relationship is ongoing
So tell me it's over
Please let me know that this relationship is over
Darling you
My dear, you
Oh, you taste so bittersweet
You have a taste that is both sweet and bitter
Can’t get you off of my lips
I can't stop thinking about you
You’re dangerous when you take me like a thief
You have a harmful effect on me when you suddenly take control
Oh and I
And I
I should let this go
I should move on from this relationship
I try and I try, I try
Even though I try my hardest
But why, why won't you leave me alone?
Why won't you let me move on from this and leave me alone?
I keep on leaving the light on
I continue to leave a light on for you
Hoping to find something else, oh
In the hopes of finding something new
I've played the fool for the last time
I have been deceived for the final time
I just can't do this myself
I cannot handle this situation on my own

@thevibeguide
Welcome back Avril, you've been missed. Can't wait for the album in February.

@codlover93love24
The Vibe Guide she said February
@MightyMico
You tell me you missed the first single Head Above Water
@NTNLU-gg8nw
@Billie Eyelash C'mon IS A JOKE AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHH
@SuperLovebug8
Guys she literally almost died, she wrote head above water to tell her story over the last six years. I think this album is a masterpiece no its not her "usual" sound but she also is 34 now not a teen. She deserves to sing how shes feeling at the moment, she has earned it. No one does music like Avril. I believe she mentioned heading back to a more rocker sound in her next project but this was something she needed to do.
@koolkat-hq5xc
I agree. I love guitars, and honestly I like her old albums the most but she's an adult woman now and you have to be deaf to say this song isn't amazing.
@janresendez7991
People need to realize that people grow and change, even within the music industry. Avril will always be the OG Queen!!
@munchermuncher7663
Is she making a new album?
