It's Not Over
Daughtry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It all seemed to make sense
You've taken away everything
And I can't deal without, I try to see the good in life
But good things in life are hard to find
We'll blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around
Let's start over
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you're the only one
It's not over
Taken all I could take, and I can not wait
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on
Can't let it bring us down
My life with you means everything
So I won't give up that easily
I'll blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?
'Cause it's all misunderstood
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around
Let's start over
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you're the only one
We can't let this get away
Let it out, let it out
Don't get caught up in yourself
Let it out
Let's start over
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you're the only one
It's not over
Let's start over
It's not over, yeah, yeah
This love is killing me, but you're the only one
It's not over
"It's Not Over" by Daughtry is a song that explores the rollercoaster of emotions that come with the end of a romantic relationship. The singer feels that his partner has taken everything away from him and he cannot manage without them. He tries to find the good in life, but struggles to do so. However, he is determined to salvage the relationship and make something good out of it. He wants to start over and do things right this time. He is aware that a part of him is dead and buried, but his love for his partner is keeping him alive. He is not willing to give up on their love easily and is willing to fight for it. The chorus is an expression of his determination to make it work and not allow their problems to end their love.
This song perfectly captures the intense feelings that come with the end of a romantic relationship, including pain, desperation, and hope. The lyrics are raw and emotional, and the lead singer's (Chris Daughtry) powerful and expressive delivery, adds an extra layer of emotion to the song. The use of metaphorical language, such as "blow it away" and "being strong, holding on," adds depth to the lyrics and makes it relatable to anyone who has had to deal with the end of a relationship.

I was blown away
난 산산히 흩어져버렸어.
What could I say
내가 무슨 말을 할 수 있었겠어
It all seemed to make sense.
그건 모두 당연한 것 같았는데.
You've taken away everything
넌 모든 걸 앗아갔어
And I can't deal with that.
그리고 난 그 사실을 견딜 수 없어
I try to see the good in life.
난 삶에서 좋은 면을 보려고 하지만,
But good things in life are hard to find.
그런것들을 찾기엔 너무 힘이들지.
We'll blow it away, blow it away
우린 그저 멀리 날려버릴거야.
Can we make this something good?
우리가 무언가 좋은 점을 찾을 수는 없을까?
Well I'll try to do to it right this time around.
이번엔 뭔가 잘 해보려고 노력하겠어
Let's start over,
다시 시작하자,
Try to do it right this time around
이번에는 뭔가 더 잘해볼게.
It's not over
끝나지 않았어
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
왜냐면 내 일부분만이 땅에 묻혀버렸기 때문에.
This love is killin me
이 사랑이 나를 죽이고 있어
But you're the only one
하지만 내겐 오직 너 하나 뿐이야.
It's not over.
끝나지 않았어
Taken all I could take
내가 할 수 있었던 건 모두 했어.
And I cannot wait
그리고 난 기다릴 수 없어
We're wasting too much time
우린 너무 많은 시간을 낭비하고 있어.
Being strong and holding on
강해지고 또 버텨야해.
Can't let it bring us down
우릴 이렇게 내버려 둘 순 없어
My life with you means everything
너와 함께 있는 삶만이 내겐 전부를 뜻해.
So I won't give up that easily
그러니 그렇게 쉽게 포기하진 않을거야
We'll blow it away, blow it away
우린 그저 멀리 날려버릴거야.
Can we make this something good?
우리가 무언가 좋은 점을 찾을 수는 없을까?
Cause it's all misunderstood
왜냐하면 그건 모두 오해거든
Well I'll try to do to it right this time around.
이번엔 뭔가 잘 해보려고 노력하겠어
Let's start over,
다시 시작하자,
Try to do it right this time around
이번에는 뭔가 더 잘해볼게.
It's not over
끝나지 않았어
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
왜냐면 내 일부분만이 땅에 묻혀버렸기 때문에.
This love is killin me
이 사랑이 나를 죽이고 있어
But you're the only one
하지만 내겐 오직 너 하나 뿐이야.
It's not over.
끝나지 않았어
We can't let this get away
이것마저 그냥 날려버릴 순 없어.
Let it out, let it out
그쯤하고 내려놓아.
Don't get caught up in yourself
너 자신에게 너무 얽매이지마
Let it out.
여유를 가져.
Let's start over,
다시 시작하자,
Try to do it right this time around
이번에는 뭔가 더 잘해볼게.
It's not over
끝나지 않았어
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
왜냐면 내 일부분만이 땅에 묻혀버렸기 때문에.
This love is killin me
이 사랑이 나를 죽이고 있어
But you're the only one
하지만 내겐 오직 너 하나 뿐이야.
It's not over.
끝나지 않았어
Lets start over
다시 시작하자
Its not over
끝나지 않았어
This love is killin me
이 사랑이 나를 죽이고 있어
But you're the only one
하지만 내겐 오직 너 하나 뿐이야.
It's not over.
아직 끝나지 않았어.
