Josh A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For all the times I knew,
That hearing what you wanted to
Was anything but true
cnd now I can say if I'd of given in
I'd still believe in it.
Thanks for nothing, thanks for nothing,
Sorry for something, sorry for something.
Keeping myself grounded,
Whilst your head is all up in the clouds, breaking my hearts tonight,
From above the sounds.
If I saw your face,
From across the room.
I'd probably
Look right through you.
In Josh A's song "Thanks," the lyrics express a mix of gratitude, resentment, and self-empowerment within a relationship. The singer starts by acknowledging that they should be thankful for something, but it quickly becomes clear that the thanks are laced with sarcasm and bitterness. The lyrics suggest that the person they are addressing constantly manipulated the truth and made the singer believe things that were false. Despite this, the singer realizes that if they had given in to these deceptions, they would still be holding onto those falsehoods. Hence, there is a sense of relief and liberation that comes from refusing to be fooled any longer.
The chorus expresses the singer's feelings of frustration and disappointment towards this person, thanking them sarcastically for their actions that have seemingly brought nothing but pain and deception. The contrast between being thankful and feeling sorry suggests a complex emotional response from the singer. They could be torn between resenting the person's behavior but also feeling a sense of remorse for their own role in the relationship, whether it be for getting involved in the first place or for allowing themselves to be deceived.
The second half of the lyrics shift towards a feeling of empowerment. The singer claims to have kept themselves grounded while the other person is lost in their own world, which is causing emotional turmoil for the singer. The line "breaking my hearts tonight, from above the sounds" implies that the person's actions are causing distress and heartbreak. The lyrics then highlight the singer's indifference towards the person by stating that if they were to see their face from across the room, they would simply look right through them, implying a lack of interest or emotional attachment.
Overall, the lyrics of "Thanks" by Josh A capture the complicated dynamics of a relationship characterized by deception, resentment, and ultimately, the singer's decision to rise above it and let go of the negativity.
Line by Line Meaning
I guess I should be thanking you
I suppose I should express gratitude towards you
For all the times I knew
For the moments when I was aware
That hearing what you wanted to
That listening to your desired words
Was anything but true
Was far from being genuine
And now I can say if I'd of given in
And now I can confidently state that if I had surrendered
I'd still believe in it
I would still have faith in it
Thanks for nothing, thanks for nothing
Gratefulness for your lack of contribution or help
Should I be, sorry for something, sorry for something
Should I feel remorse for some wrongdoing, any wrongdoing
Keeping myself grounded
Maintaining my stability
Whilst your head is all up in the clouds, breaking my hearts tonight
While your mind is absorbed in fantasies, causing me emotional pain tonight
From above the sounds
From a position higher than mere noise
If I saw your face
If I were to spot your visage
From across the room
From a distance within the same room
I'd probably, look right through you
I would most likely disregard your presence
