Once Before
Echo 7 Lyrics

The lyrics of Echo 7's song "Once Before" seem to be about revisiting a past experience or relationship that the singer has already gone through. The first verse talks about how the singer has been in this position before and how familiar thoughts are running through their head. They wish they could find a way to make everything right again and to get back to the way things were before. The chorus reaffirms this desire for things to be the way they were before and how it will never be the same again. The second verse talks about how it's important to keep moving forward and not get left behind. The singer wishes they could explain all the simple things about the situation, but they despise the way it was left before. The chorus repeats again, emphasizing the desire to return to the way things were before.

The bridge suggests that the singer is trying to convince themselves that everything is okay and that it's the same as it was before. However, the final line, "But these thoughts remain," reveals that they are still grappling with their feelings about the past experience, and they have not fully moved on. The repetition of the line "just like I've always known, it's clear once more" suggests that the singer has a sense of clarity or understanding about the situation, even if it is painful.

Overall, the lyrics of "Once Before" seem to convey a sense of nostalgia and a desire for things to be the way they were before. The singer seems to be struggling with their feelings about a past relationship or experience and is trying to reconcile their current emotions with their memories of the past.
