Wintersleep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why did you come here?
I took my bike, I broke the lock on your door
I want to stay if it's alright, it's alright
You forgot your love today
Remember, I would do anything
No one can ever take your place
And I can't live my life without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you
Maybe it's easier to just go home
Why do you want this?
Maybe tonight it isn't what you want
Or how does it end? if it's alright, it's alright
You fuck all your love away
Remember, I would do anything
Nothing to think or to do or say
And I can't read your mind without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
You know that I'd never doubt you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
But I can't read your mind without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you, babe
Nothing is anything without you
I'm on fire, oh, I
I might die, baby, I
If it's alright, it's alright
I'm alright, I'm alright
The lyrics of Wintersleep's song "Nothing Is Anything" are about the intense connection and dependence between two people in a romantic relationship. The singer acknowledges that it would be easier to leave this intense emotional connection behind, but despite their doubts, they cannot resist returning to their loved one. The line "You forgot your love today" suggests that the singer's partner is distant and disconnected from them, leaving their love behind. Despite this, the singer reassures their lover that they will do anything for them, that no one else can take their place, and that they cannot live life without them. The repetition of "nothing is anything without you" shows how important their partner is to them and how they cannot function without their love.
The second verse of the song brings up the idea that maybe it would be easier to end the relationship and go home. The singer realizes that their partner may not want the same thing they do, and they are unsure how it will all end. The line "You fuck all your love away" suggests that the singer's efforts to maintain the relationship are not matched by their partner, who may be prioritizing other things or people over them. Despite this, the singer continues to assure their partner that they will do anything for them and that they cannot read their mind without them. They also emphasize that nothing is meaningful or worthwhile without their lover.
Overall, the lyrics of "Nothing Is Anything" are about the all-consuming power of love and the dependency and need for another person in a romantic relationship. The singer acknowledges the difficulties and doubts that come with this kind of intense connection but ultimately cannot live without their lover.
