Never Say Never
L-Minatsu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pull the strings above my head
They're connected to my heart
They have seem to come undone
The further we grow apart

From down here I have nothing to gain
You've transformed me into your little puppet of pain
Is it hard for you to believe
I'm only human?
For all the pain you brought upon me
I'll sever these strings

By the lines around my neck
I can tell your discontent
Though I'll never be relеased from here
I will suffеr until the end

You have made me this way
Cold as steel
You are only to blame
For the way that you feel

Is it hard for you to believe
I'm only human?
For all the pain you brought upon me
I'll sever these strings

Is it hard for you to believe
I'm only human?




I suffer from these lifeless dreams
I'll never say sever

Overall Meaning

In L-Minatsu's song "Never say never," the artist depicts a toxic relationship in which one person has become a puppet to the other. The first two lines, "Pull the strings above my head, They're connected to my heart," create an image of being controlled by someone else. The singer has become a puppet on a string, controlled by their partner, and the strings are connected to their heart because they still love them despite the emotional pain and manipulation.


The lyrics "The further we grow apart" indicate that the relationship has lost its spark, and as the connection fades, the strings have become loose. The singer has realized that they are trapped in a negative loop and gaining nothing from the relationship. The lines, "You've transformed me into your little puppet of pain," describe the power dynamic of the relationship.


The lyrics show the singer's determination to break free from this cycle of pain and hurt. The lines, "For all the pain you brought upon me, I'll sever these strings," prove that they are taking their power back and that they are done with being controlled. The artist describes the emotional turmoil of the relationship with the line, "I suffer from these lifeless dreams," and even though the singer knows it will be hard to escape, they refuse to give up.
