From Atlantis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never have held this for so long
But every time I lift my head up something always seem to bring,
Something always seems to bring it down
What do you expect from, a man with nothing left
I gave you everything but I guess it wasn't enough
You wanted attention over love and affection
I thought you were and it and I realized you're not
I wish that I could learn to forgive you
We never really slowed it down before
Look at what we had, what we built
You threw it all and brushed it right off
I don't like it at bottom theres no room for forgiveness now
I gave you everything but I guess it wasn't enough
You wanted attention over love and affection
I thought you were and it and I realized you're not
You were the farthest from perfection
I wish that I could learn to forgive you
What do you expect from, a man with nothing left
I wish that I could forgive you
The lyrics to From Atlantis's song "Limitless" depict a sense of betrayal and hurt from a failed relationship. The artist expresses feeling like they have hit rock bottom and have been holding onto these emotions for a while. Despite their efforts to lift their head up and move forward, something always seems to bring them back down. The artist acknowledges that they gave their all to this person, but it wasn't enough for them. The other person was more focused on attention rather than love and affection. The artist thought that they were with someone who was perfect for them, but eventually that perception changed. The artist wishes they could forgive the other person, but it seems impossible given the situation.
The lyrics indicate that the artist has reached a point of no return in this relationship. They express a sense of regret and longing for how things could have been different, but ultimately they accept that forgiveness is not possible. The lyrics are relatable to anyone who has been in a relationship where they have given their all, only to feel betrayed or let down. The emotions that are expressed in the song are palpable and create a sense of empathy for the artist.

Sounds similar to Louder Than Thunder, very good.

There is no auto-tune on his voice other than the standard pitch correction ever producer uses. What everyone thinks is "Auto-tune" is vocal harmonies with delay.
artuu
No, this is From Atlantis! <3
