Never Again
Dave Audé Club Mix & Kelly Clarkson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hope the ring you gave to her
Turns her finger green
I hope when you're in bed with her
You think of me
I would never wish bad things
But I don't wish you well
Could you tell
By the flames that burned your words
I never read your letter
'Cause I knew what you'd say
Give me that Sunday school answer
Try make it all OK

Does it hurt
To know I'll never be there
But it sucks
To see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
You knew
Exactly what you would do
And don't say
You simply lost your way
She may believe you
But I never will
Never again

If she really knows the truth
She deserves you
A trophy wife, oh, how cute
Ignorance is bliss
But when your day comes
And he's through with you
And he'll be through with you
You'll die together, but alone
You wrote me in a letter
You couldn't say it right to my face
Well, give me that Sunday school answer
Repent yourself away

Does it hurt
To know I'll never be there
But it sucks
To see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
You knew
Exactly what you would do
And don't say
You simply lost your way
She may believe you
But I never will
Never again

Never again will I hear you
Never again will I miss you
Never again will I fall to you
Never
Never again will I kiss you
Never again will I want to
Never again will I love you
Never

Does it hurt
To know I'll never be there
But it sucks
To see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
You knew
Exactly what you would do
And don't say
You simply lost your way
They may believe you
But I never will
I never will




I never will
Never again

Overall Meaning

The singer expresses their feelings of resentment and wishes ill upon their former partner's new relationship. They hope that the ring given to the new person turns their finger green, symbolizing the toxicity and eventual downfall of their relationship.

They believe that ignorance is bliss for this new person but predict that their relationship will eventually crumble, leaving both the ex-lover and their new partner alone. The singer then references a letter received from the ex-lover, implying that they couldn't confront them face-to-face with the truth. The singer demands a repentance, accusing the ex-lover of needing to acknowledge their wrongdoing.


In conclusion, "Never Again" is a powerful song that explores themes of betrayal and resentment. It delves into the emotions of heartbreak, anger, and a refusal to be deceived again.
