Never Left
September Stories Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Was it really me that got to you
Or did you need a new city, new view
Almost lost you in that woods
On the side of 98
Part of you never left
A piece of me, is that the rest
Is that the rest
Bitter love could never wait
In the least it’s an escape
I felt your love but not your pain
You let love go, am I to blame
Am I to blame
Was it really me that got to you
Or did you need a new city new view
How the hell did you expect to wait
Been waiting on a sign 10 God damn days
10 God damn days
Believe me I could hide in here all night
I want it more than you thought I might
Was it really me that got to you
Or did you need a new city new view




How the hell did you expect to wait
Been waiting on a sign 10 God damn days

Overall Meaning

In the song "Never Left" by September Stories, the lyrics speak to the pain and confusion of a romantic relationship that has ended. The first verse suggests that the breakup was initiated by the other person, who may have been seeking a change of scenery or simply grown tired of the relationship. This change may have almost caused the singer to lose the person in a wooded area, creating a sense of vulnerability and fear. The chorus echoes the opening lines, questioning whether the singer was the reason for the breakup or if there were other factors at play. The lines "part of you never left" and "a piece of me, is that the rest" indicate that the singer still feels a connection to the former partner, but is unsure if the feeling is mutual. The second verse continues to explore these feelings of uncertainty, with the lines "You let love go, am I to blame" suggesting that the singer may take some responsibility for the end of the relationship, but is unsure if there was anything they could have done differently. The final lines of the song speak to the desire for closure and a clear sign of where the relationship stands, after waiting for an extended period of time.


Overall, "Never Left" captures the complex emotions that arise when a relationship ends, leaving both parties with a sense of longing and uncertainty. The lyrics are introspective and heartfelt, conveying the depth of the singer's emotions without veering into melodrama or self-pity. Through its simple yet powerful words, the song speaks to anyone who has experienced the pain of a breakup and the struggle to move on.


Line by Line Meaning

Was it really me that got to you
Did I really have an impact on you


Or did you need a new city, new view
Were you just looking for a change in scenery


Almost lost you in that woods
We were in a dangerous place


On the side of 98
By the side of a road


Part of you never left
You still have feelings for me


A piece of me, is that the rest
Is the love I have for you all that's left


Is that the rest
Is that all there is


Bitter love could never wait
Our love was too tumultuous to wait


In the least it’s an escape
At the very least, it was a form of escape


I felt your love but not your pain
I experienced your love but not the struggles you faced


You let love go, am I to blame
You gave up on love, but was it because of me


Am I to blame
Should I be held responsible


How the hell did you expect to wait
Why did you think we could wait


Been waiting on a sign 10 God damn days
We've been waiting for a sign for 10 days


Believe me I could hide in here all night
I could stay here and wait forever


I want it more than you thought I might
I'm more invested than you realize
