Never Enough
Wage War Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Has become the common place
You needed to be set free
You needed to be rid of me
Running around in circles
I am just trying to place the blame
I thought we said forever
I thought you felt the same
Stuck in a frame, you remain my conscience
We were broken
Before we bent
I can feel it now you′re there but you're not
I′m picking up what we've lost
Lay me in the ground
Just throw it away
There's nothing more you can say
I′d like to think that the love that we had
Was different than the rest
′Cause I never felt that way
I never would have second guessed
But things are different now
Being selfless let me down
Never again will I let you in
I'm not as strong as you think
I′m tired, I'm weak
Like an anchor tied to my feet
You left me to sink
You left me to sink
Stuck in a frame, you remain my conscience
We were broken
Before we bent
I can feel it now you′re there but you're not
I′m picking up what we've lost
Lay me in the ground
Just throw it away
There's nothing more you can say
I can feel it now
(No turning back this time, I′ll leave it all behind)
Lay me in the ground (I can feel it now)
I did everything I could to rise above
I gave you all I had
But it was never enough
It was never enough
Set free
The lyrics to Wage War's song "Never Enough" depict a relationship that has fallen apart and the feelings of hurt and betrayal that come with it. The song starts with the singer refusing to accept that the abandonment they have experienced is something commonplace. They believed in the forever they had promised each other, only to realize that their partner no longer feels the same. The singer feels stuck in a frame, with their partner's actions haunting their conscience. The relationship was already broken before it even had a chance to mend.
The lyrics also express the singer's realization that their partner is physically present but emotionally distant. They are aware of the loss and damage caused, but it seems like there's nothing left to say or do. The singer reflects on the love they had, believing it was different and special compared to other relationships, never doubting it. However, things have changed, and being selfless has only led to disappointment. They vow to never let their partner in again.
The chorus emphasizes the emotional weight the singer feels, stating they are not as strong as others may perceive them to be. They are tired, weak, and weighed down like an anchor tied to their feet. The partner's abandonment has left them sinking, feeling lost and broken. The lyrics repeat the line "You left me to sink," emphasizing the deep hurt caused by the partner's actions.
In the bridge of the song, the singer expresses their efforts to rise above the pain and give their all to the relationship. However, it was never enough. The relationship ultimately confines them, leading to the desire to be set free.
Overall, "Never Enough" explores the feelings of betrayal, disappointment, and the struggle to overcome the pain of a failed relationship. It delves into the raw emotions experienced when someone we trust and love lets us down.

Me niego a pensar en tu abandono
Se ha convertido en un lugar habitual
Necesitabas ser liberada
Necesitabas deshacerte de mí
Corriendo en círculos
Sólo estoy tratando de reconocer la culpa
Pensé que dijimos "para siempre"
Pensé que sentías lo mismo
Atascado en un marco, permaneces en mi memoria
Estábamos destrozados
Antes de que nos transformáramos
Ahora puedo sentir que estas ahí, pero no es así
Estoy recogiendo lo que he perdido
Colocame en el suelo
Sólo desechalo
No hay nada más que puedas decir
Me gustaría pensar que el amor que teníamos
Era diferente al resto
Por que nunca me sentí de esa manera
Nunca hubiese adivinado
Pero las cosas son distintas ahora
Ser indiferente me decepciona
Nunca más te dejaré entrar
No soy tan fuerte como piensas
Estoy harto, estoy decaído
Como si un ancla estuviera atada a mis pies
Dejaste que me hundiera
Atascado en un marco, permaneces en mi memoria
Estábamos destrozados
Antes de que nos transformáramos
Ahora puedo sentir que estas ahí, pero no es así
Estoy recogiendo lo que he perdido
Colocame en el suelo
Sólo desechalo
No hay nada más que puedas decir
Puedo sentirlo ahora
(Esta vez no hay vuelta atrás, voy a dejar todo atrás)
Colocame en el suelo (puedo sentirlo ahora)
Hice todo lo que pude para sobreponerme
Te di todo lo que tenía
Pero nunca era suficiente
Nunca fue suficiente
Liberate

This song actually speaks to me , there's people that I put so much time into that I didn't want to give up on. But they were ungrateful and spiteful , so sometimes you just have to cut them off
