Never Again
Resilience in Love's Shadows: Danko Jones' 'Never Again' Unveiled
Lyrics
The trouble with you is you gotta hole in the back of your head
The issue with you is that you have a vulnerability or weakness.
You forgot all the things that we did, all the things that we went through
You have forgotten all the experiences and challenges we faced together.
Baby I still love ya
Despite everything, I still love you.
I love the way you talk down
I appreciate the way you speak negatively about things.
I love your condescending tone
I appreciate your patronizing or belittling manner of speaking.
It makes it easy baby....it makes it damn easy
Your condescending tone makes dealing with you easy.
Never again
Deciding not to go through a similar experience again.
Awww never again
Expressing a strong reluctance to repeat past mistakes.
Never again
Reiterating a firm decision to avoid a repeat of past experiences.
I took your promise with a grain of salt
I was skeptical about your promise.
When you brake em' its nobody's fault
When promises are broken, it's not attributed to anyone specifically.
How many times did you come through
Questioning the reliability of the person by asking how many times they followed through on promises.
Same old story me feeling blue
Recounting a recurring narrative of feeling down or depressed.
I picked you up when you fell down
I supported you when you were in trouble.
But you got up and you left town
Despite my support, you decided to leave town.
That's just your nature baby
Describing leaving as a characteristic or nature of the person.
Its just your nature baby
Reaffirming that leaving is a consistent trait of the person.
Never again
Reiterating the decision to avoid a similar situation in the future.
Ya never again
Stating emphatically that such an experience won't happen again.
The trouble with you is you gotta hole in the back of your head
Repetition of the vulnerability mentioned in line 1.
You forgot all the things that we did, all the things that we went through
Reiterating the forgotten experiences and challenges mentioned in line 2.
Baby I still love ya
Despite everything, there is still love for the person.
I picked you up when you fell down
Recalling the support provided when the person fell down.
But you got up and you left town
Despite support, the person chose to leave town.
And it ain't your nature baby
Contrasting the leaving behavior as not inherent to the person's nature.
It makes it damn easy
Reiterating the ease with which the person's behavior makes it to avoid them.
Never again
Strongly expressing the decision to never go through a similar experience again.
Never again
Reiterating the firm resolve to avoid a repeat of past experiences.
Never again
Emphasizing the commitment to never experience the same situation again.
Baby.....you and i..........never again
Affirming the finality of the decision, stating that the relationship will never happen again.
