Ella Eyre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Forever like every day and never
Get what I want, because you'll be gone for what
Even get the chance to say that
I don't like the way I feel
You taking more than, you taking more than you ever gave
But then I'm always honest to you
I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
And it's always, it's always the same
And it's always, that you're gonna change
And now I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
Nothing to gain, wait of a change
And I know I never see from your side
And never be the right time, to be what I want
'Cause all that I got is not enough
Put yourself where I should be and you're forgotten me
You taking more than, you taking more than you ever gave
But then I'm always honest to you
And I'm always coming for you
But I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
And it's always, it's always the same
And it's no way, that you're gonna change
And now I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
I've forgotten what I came here for
But I'm after it, it goes, yeah
If I could I'd give you more
I just wanted you to know
That I'm always honest to you
And I'm always coming for you
But I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
It's always the same and there's no way
I can't do this anymore, anymore, anymore
No I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
The lyrics to Ella Eyre's song "Always" speak to a problematic relationship in which the singer is no longer content. The lyrics are divided into two separate stanzas that reveal distinct parts of the singer's emotional landscape. The first stanzas detail that the singer feels as though her partner takes more than he ever gives, and that a point has been reached where she dislikes the way she feels in the relationship. She states that she's always honest and always coming back to him but that she no longer wants this. The second stanzas repeat the same ideas but through different phrasing where the singer acknowledges that she has forgotten what she came here for while simultaneously admitting that she's still going after it. This stanza gives the feeling that the singer is struggling with her own desires and that part of what keeps her with him is that she feels she hasn't done enough.
The overall intent of the lyrics to "Always" seems to indicate that the singer has reached a point in the relationship where it is no longer satisfying. Still, she's emotionally tied to the partner, and this makes it difficult for her to leave the relationship or find what she came for in the first place. The singer feels as though the partner takes more than he ever gives, and that she has been forgotten, making the relationship unbalanced. Ultimately the lyrics leave the sense that the singer is trapped and unable to move on despite her desires.
Line by Line Meaning
Said it before, you were more than I could ever take
I have expressed to you previously that you have been too much for me to handle
Forever like every day and never
It feels as if this situation will never change
Get what I want, because you'll be gone for what
I am unable to get what I desire because you leave before I have the chance to express myself
Even get the chance to say that
I don't even have the opportunity to speak up or say what I want to say
I don't like the way I feel
The emotions I am feeling are negative and unpleasant
You taking more than, you taking more than you ever gave
You are taking more from me than you are giving me
But then I'm always honest to you
Despite everything, I always tell you the truth
And I'm always coming for you
I am always trying to make things better between us
I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
I do not want to continue in this situation any longer
And it's always, it's always the same
This situation is constantly recurring and does not change
And it's always, that you're gonna change
Despite promises to change, you never do
Nothing to gain, wait of a change
There is nothing to gain from waiting for a change
And I know I never see from your side
I am aware that I do not see things from your perspective
And never be the right time, to be what I want
It is unlikely that it will ever be the right time for me to get what I want
'Cause all that I got is not enough
What I have been given is not sufficient
Put yourself where I should be and you're forgotten me
If you were in my position, you would forget about me
I've forgotten what I came here for
I have lost sight of my original intentions
But I'm after it, it goes, yeah
I am still trying to attain my goals, but it seems impossible
If I could I'd give you more
I wish I could give you more than I already have
I just wanted you to know
I wanted you to be aware of my feelings
It's no way, that you're gonna change
I do not believe that you will ever change
And now I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
I have reached my limit and do not wish to continue in this situation any longer
It's always the same and there's no way
This recurring situation cannot be changed
I can't do this anymore, anymore, anymore
I am unable to continue in this situation any longer
No I don't want this anymore, anymore, anymore
I have made it clear that I do not wish to continue in this situation any longer

Said it before, you were more than I could ever take, forever
Like every day and never
Get what I want, because you’ll be gone for what
Even get the chance to say that
I don’t like the way I feel
You taking more than, you taking more than you ever gave
But then I’m always honest to you
And I’m always coming for you
I don’t want this anymore, anymore, anymore
And it’s always, it’s always the same
And it’s always, that you’re complaining
And now I don’t want this anymore, anymore, anymore
Nothing to gain, wait of a change
And I know I never see from your side
And never be the right time, to be what I want
Cause all that I got is not enough
Put yourself where I should be and you’re forgotten me
You taking more than, you taking more than you ever gave
But then I’m always honest to you
And I’m always coming for you
But I don’t want this anymore, anymore, anymore
And it’s always, it’s always the same
And it’s no way, that you’re gonna change
And now I don’t want this anymore, anymore, anymore
I’ve forgotten what I came here for
But I’m after it, it goes, yeah
If I could I’d give you more
I just wanted you to know
That I’m always honest to you
And I’m always coming for you
But I don’t want this anymore, anymore, anymore
It’s always the same and there’s no way
I can’t do this anymore, anymore, anymore
No I don’t want this anymore, anymore, anymore
