Never Enough
Red Wanting Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hospital corners out of order
I am rolling in it
Curse me with a love
If it's an illness
Then a straight jacket fits

Building monuments around every breathe
You left for me to find
And every daisy (in my path) will die in an effort
To find out if I am on your mind

There is never enough of you to keep me satisfied
If you run I'm right behind because I can never
Have enough of you (your love)

Roleplay what you would say if you were here
It's all just pretend
Stories in my head repeat again (and again)
Until I start to believe

In make believe
Behind these eyes that are brown
There's a sun that goes down just for me
If I had to choose between you in my dreams





Or reality without you
I'd never wakeup again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Red Wanting Blue's song Never Enough convey intense desire and obsession towards someone. The first verse talks about the singer's messy and disorganized state, indicating that they are consumed by their emotions towards this person. They even mention that they would welcome being cursed with a love that's like an illness, as it is all-consuming. The line "building monuments around every breath you left for me to find" suggests that every little thing this person does is significant to the singer, and they hold onto it dearly, perhaps even to the point of obsession. They go on to say that they will try to find any indication that this person is thinking of them, even if it's just by the wilting of daisies in their path. The chorus then reveals the desperation and never-ending yearning of the singer towards this person; there can never be enough of them to satisfy their longing.


The second verse takes a turn towards a more delusional state. The singer engages in role-playing and make-believe scenarios about being with this person, showing that they are consumed by their desire to the point of creating their own reality. The line "behind these eyes that are brown, there's a sun that goes down just for me" further emphasizes this, as if the universe revolves around their relationship. The final lines suggest that the singer would rather live in a dream where they are with this person than face reality without them, revealing the obsessive and unhealthy nature of their love.
