No Name
Daniel Gum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just cried through your first dance
To "Here and Now"
Feels funny now
But nothing feels quite like it did though
In my head
I am sorry, I know
What I did is all I didn't know
Nowhere to go, to go, to go on
All your old songs
You liked what you made
But you can't really play them anymore
And all the clothes you wore
They were cool when you got them
But you don't really wear them anymore
Alice
Heard you cried all night when we split
It was for the better
Feels funny now
But nothing feels quite like it did though
When we were in it

Alice
Addressing someone named Alice
I just cried through your first dance
I became emotional during your first dance on your wedding day
To "Here and Now"
The song that was being played during the first dance
Feels funny now
The situation seems humorous now
But nothing feels quite like it did though
However, the emotions felt back then can never be replicated
In my head
These memories are still replaying in my mind
I am happy
I am content with the choices made
I am sorry, I know
I regret causing pain
What I did is all I didn't know
I made mistakes due to ignorance and inexperience
Nowhere to go, to go, to go on
Stuck with no direction
All your old songs
Referring to songs from the past
You liked what you made
You were proud of your creations
But you can't really play them anymore
However, those songs don't hold up in the present
And all the clothes you wore
Referring to clothing from the past
They were cool when you got them
You were excited to wear those clothes when you first got them
But you don't really wear them anymore
However, they no longer fit your current style
Heard you cried all night when we split
Rumors of you being emotional after our breakup
It was for the better
The split was ultimately a positive change
When we were in it
During our relationship
