End of Nothing
Masquerade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't wanna live
I don't wanna die
You made me forgive
Your cold-hearted lies
The end of nothing
The end of something
Something we never shared
I gave you my heart
I gave you my way
You played the tart
And gave me away
The end of nothing
Nothing is in the past
The end of something
Something that couldn't last
If not for me
If not for you
For the truth
If not for us
If not for this
For the trust
I wanted love
I wanted grace
You watched from above
And laughed in my face
For the sake of trust
Promises we make
Truth is trusting
The vows we take
The song End of Nothing by Masquerade talks about betrayal, heartbreak, and the end of a relationship. The singer of the song is expressing his/her pain and how the person they loved had played with their emotions. The phrase "Sucker for ya!" in the beginning shows how the person had become a fool for love and how the other person had taken advantage of that. The singer is in despair and feeling like they do not want to live or die because of the hurt they feel. However, they have forgiven the other person for their cold-hearted lies, which shows the complexity of love and how we often forgive those we love even though they hurt us deeply.
The phrase "The end of nothing, nothing was all we had" shows how there was no substantial foundation to the relationship, and they were leaving behind nothing meaningful. This is followed by "The end of something, something we never shared," which implies that there was potential for something more, which they never got to explore. The chorus reflects on how the love they shared has already ended; "The end of something, something that couldn't last." The singer gave their all to the relationship, their heart, and their way of life, but the other person was not reciprocating, playing the role of a tart and ultimately giving them away.
