At the End
Since The Flood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I felt you slip away I never wanted it to end this way what could I say what could I fucking do
Wait for the day it all comes back to you.
You'll never know what you have done I place my faith in no one
I'll never trust again.
Fuck you.
I've never felt this hopeless betrayed fucking alone
On my way straight down with no chance.
Victim of pain.
I brought this on my fucking self
So far from those I once held so close pushed aside from what I once called my own how could I reach this fucking low.
I gave all I had with nothing to show the fact I couldn't see it coming I have no one to blame but myself
On my knees again on my knees again I felt you slip away.
I never wanted it to end this way
The opening lyrics of "Take my hand walk with me I wanna show you everything you missed I wanna show you how it came to this" bring out the melancholic tone of the song, which speaks of betrayal and hopelessness. The singer laments about how he felt the one he loved slipping away and never wanted their relationship to end in such a way, but he had no control over it. The use of profanity in "what could I say what could I fucking do / Wait for the day it all comes back to you" and "Fuck you" only adds to the intensity and raw emotion of the song, evocative of hurt and anger.
As the song progresses, the singer expresses the depth of his pain, feeling alone and a victim of his own mistakes. The lines "So far from those I once held so close pushed aside from what I once called my own how could I reach this fucking low" indicate that he has lost his way and feels disconnected from his loved ones. The next lines, "I gave all I had with nothing to show the fact I couldn't see it coming I have no one to blame but myself" suggest that perhaps he gave too much and lost sight of what really mattered, causing him to spiral into this cycle of self-blame and regret. Even though he has hit rock bottom, the repeated refrain "on my knees again" shows that he's not giving up, and perhaps there is still hope for redemption.

Love that when Evan tried to "command" nothing happens but when he asked God for help, even if in an exasperated manner, the Lord provided.

Most unrealistic part of the movie.
@starspark9471
That is actually my favourite part of the movie! The Lord knows what we need before we even ask. And He loves and answers even the simplest of prayers from those in faith who believe He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Heb 11:6

I like how it's a flood on a small town and he decided that they still NEEDED a pair of every animal there is.
@mr.tidepod9040
Well if you heard of or seen Noah's ark you'd get the whole thing of every animal in existence aboarding the Ark.
@mikeidc7690
@Mr. Tide Pod He did that so animals wouldn't go extinct, but in this case, it's just a flood on a small town.
It's just funny to me.
@avashapava1528
The animal pairs have to do with the Jewish religion.
Just saying.
