Til The End
Haven Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It goes way down, makes no sense
And all the times you turn to run away
When you bitch about the times
The times I still hold dear
Lately I'm sure words won't implore you to stay
It won't keep me near you
Never thought I'd say it till the end
It goes way down, makes no sense
And all the times you turn to run away
When you bitch about the times
The times I still hold dear
[Chorus]
Lately I'm sure words won't implore you to stay
It won't keep me near you
Lately I'm sure words won't implore you to stay
Lately I'm sure words won't implore you to stay now
Never thought I'd say it till the end
It goes way down, makes no sense
And all the times you turn to run away
When you bitch about the times
The times I still hold dear
[Chorus]
The lyrics of Haven's song "Til The End" express the frustration and confusion that arise within a romantic relationship that seems to be coming to an end. The singer says they never thought they would say the things they are saying now, indicating that they are surprised by their own emotions. The situation "goes way down" and "makes no sense" which could suggest a deep sense of hopelessness and despair felt by the singer. The repeated line "And all the times you turn to run away, when you bitch about the times" suggests that the singer's partner has a tendency to blame them for their problems and wants to leave the relationship whenever things get difficult. Despite this, the singer still holds onto memories from the past that they cherish.
The chorus expresses the singer's sense of resignation and acceptance that words alone will not be enough to convince their partner to stay. The repetition of the line "Lately I'm sure words won't implore you to stay" reinforces the idea that the singer has tried to make their case to their partner before, to no avail.
Overall, the lyrics of "Til The End" capture the tricky balance of holding on and letting go in a relationship. The singer loves their partner and wants to keep them close, but also recognizes that if their partner really wants to go, words won't make a difference.
