LifeTime
Sundown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell it to the world - You're so worn out
All you wanna do is just scream and shout
Tell it to the world - It's over now
Whatever we had got lost somehow

But you don't feel that same way do you
Not this time around
If you could save us now then would you
Over and out
But you don't feel that same way do you
Not this time around
It all comes crashing down how could you
Over and out

Nothing in this world could ever change
Who you truely are and how it's all arranged




Nothing in this world could ever heal
All this fucking pain you made me feel

The second verse explores the depth of the pain that the singer feels. They claim that "nothing in this world could ever change who you truly are." Their pain is not only due to the loss of the relationship, but also the pain that has been inflicted upon them. They state that "nothing in this world could ever heal all this fucking pain you made me feel."


Ultimately, "Lifetime" is a song about heartbreak and the pain of losing a relationship. The singer is grappling with the fact that the relationship is over and that they are unable to save it.
