Over Again
B.L.A.C.K Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I say, I've got a good mind to give up living, and go shopping instead
To pick up me a tombstone, and be pronounced dead
When I read your letter this morning, that was in your place in bed
I read your letter this morning, that was in your place in bed
That's when I decided, that I would be better off dead
Oh, there's no use you looking, or ever hoping to get me back
Yes, because it's all over now, and you can bet on that

The following line reveals the true intention behind the macabre statement: picking out a tombstone for their own funeral. This line highlights the extreme depths of despair the singer has sunk to and their intention to end their own life.
The second verse depicts the singer reading a letter left by a significant other who has clearly moved on, causing the singer to spiral into further despair.

The singer feels as though they have lost everything they held dear and that life is no longer worth living.
