Game Over
Last Amanda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Parents are what I am.
You are a star, but you are falling
Falling over me.
No.
It's over now
Don't waste my time
Don't waste my time.
I lost the dream, but I won the silence.
I'll never call again.
I searched the sun, I searched salvation,
But it ain't to myself.
No...
It's over now
Don't waste my time.
No...
Don't waste my time.
In "Game Over," Last Amanda sings about a failed relationship and the aftermath of the breakup. The lyrics "I lost my mind, I lost my heaven" indicate that the relationship was emotionally tumultuous and perhaps even damaging to Last Amanda's mental health. The line "parents are what I am" suggests that the relationship may have been built on parental issues or dynamics, because "parents" are a fundamental part of who we are.
Next, the lyrics shift to the subject of the former partner: "You are a star, but you are falling, falling over me." This portrays the ex-partner as someone who was once admired and loved, but is now losing their way or making mistakes that are affecting Last Amanda. The repeated refrain of "No...it's over now, don't waste my time" emphasizes the finality of the breakup and Last Amanda's desire to move on.
In the second verse, Last Amanda reflects on her own feelings after the breakup. "I lost the dream, but I won the silence" may indicate that while Last Amanda had certain hopes and aspirations for the relationship that have now been lost, she also gained a sense of peace and quiet without the drama of the partnership in her life. The line "I'll never call again" suggests that Last Amanda is taking steps to distance herself from her ex-partner and move on with her life.
Overall, "Game Over" is a song about the complexity of romantic relationships and the difficult feelings that can arise when they end. The lyrics capture both the pain and the liberation of a breakup.
