Page 44 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The only person that you love is yourself,
Well you and me were just not going anywhere,
Your best bet is to by yourself,
'Cause Im not sure its over
[over shoulder]
Something inside is telling me...
Not going anywhere with you
Not going anywhere with you-ooo-oo
Looked into your eyes and didn't see anything,
The only person that you love is yourself,
Well you and me were just not going anywhere,
Your best bet is to by yourself,
'Cause Im not sure its over
[over shoulder]
Something inside is telling me...
Not going anywhere with you
Not going anywhere with you-hooo-oo
Not going anywhere with you-ooo-oo
Not going anywhere
[not going anywhere]
Not going anywhere
'Cause Im not sure its over
[over shoulder]
Something inside is telling me...
Not going anywhere with you
Not going anywhere with you
Not going anywhere with you
Not going anywhere with you-hooo-oo
The lyrics of Page 44's song "Anywhere" convey a sense of disappointment and disillusionment in a relationship that seems to have lost its way. The opening line, "Looked into your eyes and didn't see anything," sets the tone for the rest of the song, suggesting that the singer feels a sense of emptiness or lack of connection with their partner. The line "The only person that you love is yourself" underscores this feeling of disconnection, as it suggests that the partner is self-centered and unable to invest emotionally in the relationship.
The chorus, "Not going anywhere with you," reinforces the sense that the singer has given up hope for the relationship and no longer sees a future with their partner. The repetition of this line, with the descending melodic line of the "hooo-oo" ending, creates a haunting and melancholy effect, conveying the sadness and regret inherent in the situation.
The song's lyrics ultimately suggest that the best course of action for the singer's partner is to go it alone, as the line "Your best bet is to by yourself" implies. The final repetition of the chorus, with the slight change in phrasing ("Not going anywhere / [not going anywhere]"), reinforces the sense of finality and closure that the singer has reached.
