Never Enough
Decade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But now we’re holding onto hope
Will it see you through?
I know I never did my best
This bitter feud has made a mess of this family.
We used to be so close
There’s nothing left of what we had
Rest your bones
Before you fall apart again
Lovely heart
I wish I cared too much, never enough for you
All this time and not a sign
It makes me sick, it makes me wish that
I was still a kid
I wasn’t great I must confess
But all your issues made a mess of this family
We used to be so close.
There’s nothing left of what we had
In this hospital bed.
Rest your bones
Before you fall apart again
Lovely heart
I wish I cared too much, never enough for you.
Seven years and not a single word
And now I’m taking over the world
And you may never know
You’d be so proud
The lyrics to Decade's song Never Enough express a sense of regret over the breakdown of a family relationship. The opening lines set the scene by acknowledging that there has been a long period of silence between the two parties, but despite this, there is still hope that things can be repaired. The line "Will it see you through?" suggests that the hope is conditional on the other person's willingness to engage in conversation, and that the outcome is uncertain.
The rest of the song reflects on the past relationship, specifically the singer's sense of failure to have done their best, the bitterness that arose as a result of "this bitter feud," and the wish that they had cared more. The repetition of the line "We used to be so close" emphasizes the sense of loss that the singer feels, and the line "There's nothing left of what we had/In this hospital bed" adds a tragic twist, suggesting that one party might be on their deathbed, making the possible reconciliation all the more poignant.
Overall, the song speaks to the universal experience of familial conflict and the longing for second chances and forgiveness.
Line by Line Meaning
It’s been a while since we last spoke
We haven't talked in a long time
But now we’re holding onto hope
We are optimistic about rebuilding our relationship
Will it see you through?
Will our hope be enough to fix things?
I know I never did my best
I acknowledge that I didn't try as hard as I should have
This bitter feud has made a mess of this family
Our conflict has caused damage to our family
We used to be so close
We were once very close
There’s nothing left of what we had
Our relationship is now empty and broken
In this hospital bed
Perhaps we're physically in a hospital bed or it's metaphorical for feeling broken and hurt
Rest your bones
Take some time to recover
Before you fall apart again
Don't let yourself break down again
Lovely heart
A term of endearment for the person being spoken to
I wish I cared too much, never enough for you
I want to care more for you, but it never seems to be enough
All this time and not a sign
We have gone a long time without communication or progress
It makes me sick, it makes me wish that
This situation is upsetting and makes me wish for things to be different
I was still a kid
I wish we could go back to a time when we were innocent and carefree
I wasn’t great I must confess
I admit that I wasn't perfect
But all your issues made a mess of this family
Your problems contributed to the damage in our family
Seven years and not a single word
We have spent seven years without talking to each other
And now I’m taking over the world
I am succeeding and thriving despite our broken relationship
And you may never know
You might not be around to witness my success
You’d be so proud
I wish you were here to see how far I've come
