Things I Haven't Felt.
Dependence Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I push out more than I take in.
And half of what I've had, I've lost.
I just want to know, what did it cost.
What did you cost?
But when we're alone, in a crowded room, I only have eyes for you.
I'm only seeing for you.
And every breath that you take,
It makes my walls break down.
You're finding news ways to define me,
everytime that you're smiling.
I'm finding new things inside of me,
things that I haven't ever seen.
Things I haven't felt,
things I haven't seen,
things I haven't been,
in years.
Things I haven't felt,
things I haven't seen,
things I haven't been,
in years.
Can I taste life,
will it taste right, again?
The first two lines of Dependence's "Things I Haven't Felt" paint a picture of someone who is giving more than they are taking, and not receiving much in return. Half of what they have had, they have lost, indicating that they have experienced some form of personal loss. The following lines suggest that they are questioning the value of what they have lost, and wondering what they have gained in exchange. In particular, the lyrics ask "what did you cost?" indicating that the loss may be related to a specific person or relationship.
However, despite feeling alone in a crowded room, the singer's attention is focused solely on one person - the addressee of the song. This person seems to hold some kind of power over the singer, as indicated by the way the singer's walls break down and their self-concept starts to shift in response to the other person's actions. The other person is finding new ways to define the singer every time they smile, and the singer is discovering things within themselves that they haven't seen or felt in years.
The final lines of the song hint at a deeper desire - the singer wonders if they can taste life again and if it will taste good. This suggests that the singer feels like they have been missing out on something, and that they are hoping that the other person can help them find whatever it is they have been looking for.
Overall, "Things I Haven't Felt" is a song that explores the themes of loss, longing, and the power that other people can hold over us. It suggests that even when we feel alone and disconnected, there is always the potential for someone to come into our lives and help us see things in a new way.
