Jeremy Zucker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I knew how it could end
Yeah, I guess things don't change
I let feelings fade again
But I see you clear as day
And I won't let go
Would I call to hope unless
But I've thrown it all
Over waterfalls
I'm staring at the clouds
You know I hate this weather
But we can work it out
I swear I could do better if you let me
So we wait for things to change
I never thought that this could end
If I'm not with you how could I fall asleep again?
What's wrong with the lights low?
Just tell me what it is you're tryna say
'Cause in the end you'll understand
I'm already a world away
And I see you haven't changed
'Cause this shit gets old
With a heart of gold, you know
If I need you, I'll see you in my dreams
But I've thrown it all
Over waterfalls
I'm staring at the clouds
You know I hate this weather
But we can work it out
I swear I could do better if you let me
So we wait for things to change
I never thought that this could end
If I'm not with you how could I fall asleep again?
You know that I've been here times before
When no one's watching
You won't notice, no, that's right
You won't ever know my life
It's on the table
Like they always told me
I would be the same but
I'm just feeling phoney
They don't really notice
You don't really know me
Jeremy Zucker's "End" is a song about a failed relationship that the singer clearly regrets. He opens the song by acknowledging that he should have seen the breakup coming, but he let his feelings fade away nonetheless. He now sees his ex clearly and feels remorse for letting her go. He's thrown everything over waterfalls and is now staring at the clouds, unhappy with the weather that's matched his mood. He wants to make amends and feels he could do better if given another chance.
The chorus is a plea for things to change. The singer never pictured the end of the relationship, and he can't sleep without his partner. He longs for her and wants her back. He's so close to her and yet feels a world apart. He knows that she hasn't changed, but he's hoping that things between them could get better. The heart of gold referred to in the song is likely to be his ex-girlfriend's, which he thinks could help him if he needs her; if only he could be with her again, even if it means he needs to wait for things to change.
The second verse of the song is a moment of introspection for Jeremy. He realizes that he's been in this position before, watching others fix their relationships while he feels lost and alone. He's put his heart on the line and feels like a fraud because of the way things have turned out: people have always told him he'd be the same, but he's feeling phony because he's not like them. However, the one person who doesn't understand him the most is the one who's closest to him, but she fails to see him for who he is.

I let feelings fade again
I let my emotions get the best of me and lost interest in this relationship
But I see you clear as day
I see you and your true nature without any filter
And I won't let go
I won't give up on you or this relationship easily
Would I call to hope unless
I wouldn't hold onto hope if there wasn't a chance we could still be together
You slip right through my fingers in the rain
I lost you and any chance of us being together when I wasn't paying attention
But I've thrown it all
I've given up on everything we had
Over waterfalls
I let everything we had crash and burn
I'm staring at the clouds
I'm lost and deep in thought
You know I hate this weather
I'm not enjoying the current state of things
But we can work it out
I believe we can fix this if we try
I swear I could do better if you let me
I promise to be better if you just give me a chance

If I'm not with you how could I fall asleep again?
I can't sleep without you by my side
What's wrong with the lights low?
Why are you acting distant and different?
Just tell me what it is you're tryna say
Be honest and share your true feelings with me
'Cause in the end, you'll understand
Eventually, you'll realize what you lost
I'm already a world away
I'm far gone and distant, emotionally and physically
And I see you haven't changed
You're still the same and haven't grown or improved
'Cause this shit gets old
This pattern and cycle is getting tiresome
With a heart of gold, you know
Despite your flaws, I know you have a kind heart
If I need you, I'll see you in my dreams
I'll only have access to you in my imagination and fantasies
But I've thrown it all
I've let go of all our past and memories
Over waterfalls
I've allowed all our love to go down the drain
You know that I've been here times before
I've been in similar situations with failed relationships in the past
When no one's watching
When I'm alone with my thoughts
You won't notice, no, that's right
You won't see or acknowledge my struggles and pain
You won't ever know my life
You'll never understand or fully comprehend what's happening in my life
It's on the table
My life and problems are open and known, but neglected by you
Like they always told me
As people have warned me before
I would be the same but
I expected the same from you, but was disappointed
I'm just feeling phoney
I'm feeling false and inauthentic in this relationship
They don't really notice
Others don't acknowledge my problems and struggles
You don't really know me
You don't truly see and understand who I am as a person
