Had Enough
LifeHouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Second guessing every thought
Mystified, just spinning 'round in circles
Drowning in the silent screaming with nothing left to say
Every time I reach for you, there's no one there to hold on to
Nothing left for me to miss, I'm letting go, letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me too
I believe that love should be a reason
To give and get back in return (to give and get back in return)
I wanna breathe in a new beginning
With someone who will wrap her arms around what's left of me
Every time I reach for you, there's no one there to hold onto
Nothing left for me to miss, I'm letting go, letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me too
Now I know what empty is, I've had enough, I've had enough of this.
Inside I'm barely holding on
There's something that's already gone
Inside of me a world is in this all alone
Every time I reach for you, there's no one there to hold on to
Nothing left for me to miss, I'm letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me to
Now I know what empty is, I've had enough, I've had enough of this.
Every time I reach for you, there's no one there to hold on to
Nothing left for me to miss, I'm letting go, letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me to
Now I know what empty is, I've had enough, I've had enough of this.
The lyrics of "Had Enough" by Lifehouse depict a sense of loneliness and exhaustion with a failing relationship. The singer feels mystified and helpless as they spin around in mental circles, drowning in their own silent screams with nothing left to say. They reach out for their partner, but there is no one there to hold onto, and they feel like they are letting go of what is left of their relationship. They believe that love should be a reason to give and receive, but they are tired of wasting their time and effort on an empty and unfulfilling relationship. The singer is barely holding on, and they feel as if something inside them is already gone. They long for a new beginning where they can find someone to wrap their arms around them and make them feel complete once again.

Loneliness facing up and down these hallways
Feeling alone, wandering aimlessly through the hallways of life
Second guessing every thought
Questioning every decision and thought
Mystified, just spinning 'round in circles
Feeling confused, stuck in a cycle of uncertainty
Drowning in the silent screaming with nothing left to say
Feeling overwhelmed by inner turmoil and unable to express it
Every time I reach for you, there's no one there to hold on to
Feeling abandoned and alone when seeking comfort and support
Nothing left for me to miss, I'm letting go, letting go of this
Realizing that there is nothing left to hold on to and deciding to let go
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me too
Feeling mentally drained and devoid of hope
Now I know what empty is, I've had enough, I've had enough of this.
Having reached a breaking point and refusing to endure the emptiness any longer
I believe that love should be a reason
Believing that love should motivate and inspire
To give and get back in return (to give and get back in return)
Expecting mutual love and respect in a romantic relationship
I wanna breathe in a new beginning
Desiring a fresh start and a chance to begin again
With someone who will wrap her arms around what's left of me
Wanting to be embraced and supported by someone who accepts all of one's flaws and imperfections
Inside I'm barely holding on
Struggling internally and barely keeping it together
There's something that's already gone
Feeling a loss or absence of something important
Inside of me a world is in this all alone
Feeling isolated and alone, as if the world is within oneself
