No more
DragonForce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The light is shining
Still I'm not so surprised
One thousand voice mails
For one thousand lies

Blind faith, lost trust
All along it was plain to see
Years passed, lost touch
Leads the path to insanity

Take another shot, show me what you got
It was never gonna last forever
Open your eyes, try and realize
Once is enough so tonight now I say

No more, from a voice that breaks the awkward silence
No more, never heard so loud before
Made the same mistakes a thousand times
Never meant to be like this so I say
No more tonight
And it feels all right

Dark nights, long passed
Waking up from a pointless dream
Brighter days, brighter times
Hides the fatal reality

Questions, answers
False addiction to nothing real
Lights fade, crushed to dust
Desperation in tragedy

Take another shot, show me what you got
It was never gonna last forever
Open your eyes, try and realize
Once is enough so tonight now I say

No more, from a voice that breaks the awkward silence
No more, never heard so loud before
Made the same mistakes a thousand times
Never meant to be like this so I say
No more tonight
And it feels all right

(No more) Same old game we play together
(No more) Time will pass, we'll still remember
(No more) But tonight this game is over
(No more) Strangers in the night forever

No more, from a voice that breaks the awkward silence
No more, never heard so loud before
Made the same mistakes a thousand times
Never meant to be like this so I say
No more tonight
And it feels all right





And it feels all right

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DragonForce's song "No More" seem to be describing a disillusionment and rejection of false promises and lost trust. The verses contrast the shining light of hope with the reality of one thousand lies and false addiction to "nothing real." The chorus declares a breaking of the cycle, a refusal to repeat the same mistakes and play the same game of blind faith. The repetition of "no more" reinforces this resolve to end the cycle, and the final lines express a sense of relief and closure, with the singer feeling that it "feels all right."


The song's message could be interpreted as a call to awareness and skepticism in the face of false promises or blind faith, and a refusal to be trapped in a cycle of disappointment and disillusionment. The use of imagery such as "lights fade, crushed to dust" and "strangers in the night forever" could be seen as representing the emptiness and heartbreak that can result from chasing false promises or illusions.

DF music would fit in a lot of AMVs for a lot of different animes. Wish that more people would make them.

Dolphinjamez

Has anyone on this comment thread seen the Guren Lagann AMV with Cry Thunder as the song?

Blair Dunn

+GTPrincess123 - listen to the first 30 seconds of 'power of the ninja sword', sounds so much like an anime intro.
