Never Coming Back
Stereo 8 Feat Jakes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Breathin’ in the mornin’
Ashes filled with moments of you
Hear the end callin’
Can’t escape fate on the loose
Gotta find my center
And turn my thunder to rain
Pull myself together
And feel the pain wash away

Now that you’re gone I’m alive
Free, from all the chains that kept me down on my knees
This time
You can’t keep me from
Coming back to life


Play with my emotions
Just to keep me broken for you
But I am like the ocean
Stronger than the weight of your truth
So I find my center
And turn my thunder to rain
Pull myself together
And feel the pain wash away

Now that you’re gone I’m alive
Free, from all the chains that kept me down on my knees
This time
You can’t keep me from
Coming back to life


I’m breaking away
from all of your vain
Seeing my future in new ways
Healing my wounds
and finding my truth
I will recover

Now that you’re gone I’m alive
Free, from all the chains that get me down on my knees
This time




You can’t keep me from
Coming back to life
