Never Been
Gracia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I took the chances
You've made mistakes
It cuts so deep
Watch my dreams breaking
All your words and phrases
Didn't mean a thing
Can't hide your sins
I've had enough
Had enough
Had enough
Had enough

Refrain:
So why do you turn away
When night falls
Have you never been
Never been
Never been
In the pain I'm in
So why do you walk away
When I call
Have you never been
Never been
Never been
In the state I'm in
Play the game
Who's to blame
(Have you never been
Never been
Never been)

Watching the T.V.
Alone tonight
I miss you so
Hear my heart crying
Needing some affection
You're as could as ice
Those hidden lies
I'll never know
Never know
Never know
Never know

Refrain...

Love and emotions
These things I miss
You broke my heart
I feel sorrow
You won't say you love me
Is it over now
Should I leave tonight
You never know
Never know
Never know
No no no





Refrain...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Gracia's song "Never Been" express the pain and frustration of being in a relationship where one person feels neglected and hurt. The opening verse seems to suggest that the singer has been hurt deeply by their partner's mistakes, which has led to the shattering of their dreams. The partner's words and excuses ring hollow and the singer has "had enough" of their lies and sins. The refrain questions why the partner turns away or walks away when the singer needs them the most, implying that they have never experienced the same level of heartache that the singer is feeling.


In the second verse, the singer is watching TV alone and missing their partner, yet they also feel emotionally neglected and cry out for affection. The partner is described as cold as ice and their hidden lies will never be known, adding to the singer's feeling of confusion and mistrust. The final verse alludes to the singer's hopelessness and despair, as they wonder if their partner even loves them and if they should leave.


Overall, the lyrics capture the pain and frustration of being in a one-sided relationship where one person is deeply hurt while the other seems indifferent or unconcerned. The repetition of "never been" in the refrain highlights the singer's sense of isolation and suggests that their partner is unable to empathize with their pain.
