Never Forget
Battery Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was never there,
Always turning my back on the people who cared.
So believe me when i tell you
I know i was wrong, i never let you near
Now lonely and crying, i hold your memory dear.
Pls understand
But when you're lying the gutter, it's hard to look at the stars.
We're all so busy feeling down and out,
It's easy to forget who your friends are.
The people who care, the people who will listen,
We should never take for granted the love that they are giving.
Selfish, i was so selfish, though i was i pain.
It seems so lame
That i could just turn my back and walk away.
So believe me when i tell you
Though things will never be the same,
I will always love you in my own special way.
(Ref.)
I'm sry. i will never take for granted the love that you're giving.
NEVER FORGET WHO YOUR FRIENDS ARE
The song Never Forget by Battery is a powerful reflection on the regrets one can have when they lose touch with the people who care about them. The lyrics express a deep sense of sorrow and remorse for turning away from those who loved and supported the singer. The opening lines "Angry, I was so angry, I was so scared" sets an emotional tone for the rest of the song. The singer acknowledges that they made mistakes, that they were selfish and never present when others needed them. Over time, they realized the value of the people around them, and the chorus repeats the idea that we should "never forget who our friends are."
The lyrics suggest that sometimes we get caught up in our own problems and forget the people who care about us the most. The line "we're all so busy feeling down and out, it's easy to forget who your friends are" is especially poignant because it captures the way that depression or overwhelming personal issues can make us withdraw from the people who might be able to help us. Battery's Never Forget is a gentle reminder to not take our social connections for granted and to cherish the support system we have.
In conclusion, Battery's Never Forget is a soulful song that speaks to the importance of friendship and emotional support. The song's emotional intensity speaks to anyone who has regretted not being there for someone or has lost touch with people they care about. By acknowledging their mistakes and the people they hurt, the singer suggests that it is never too late to learn from our regrets and cherish those who are important to us.
