Nothing Left
Fading Echoes: Love's Undoing in Delanie Leclerc's Melody
Lyrics
Why does love fall apart?
Questioning the reasons behind the breakdown of love.
We were done from the start
Acknowledging that the relationship was doomed from the beginning.
We were blinded by the art of holding onto nothing
Reflecting on the illusion of holding onto something that doesn't exist.
Do you know where we went wrong?
Asking if there is awareness of the mistakes made in the relationship.
Haven't known you for so long
Expressing a lack of familiarity despite the time spent together.
I forgot the way it felt to believe in something
Forgetting the feeling of believing in something meaningful.
We say we're okay when it all just seems to hurt
Pretending to be okay despite the emotional pain.
I can't see the difference now of what we are or what we were
Uncertainty about the distinction between the present and the past.
Is this the part where you walk away?
Questioning if this is the moment when the partner decides to leave.
We throw it all away?
Contemplating the decision to throw the relationship away.
And we pretend we don't know us at all
Pretending not to recognize each other anymore.
What we had is distant memories
Describing past love as distant memories.
Ran out of remedies
Running out of solutions to problems in the relationship.
I rip our pictures all off of the walls
Symbolically removing traces of the relationship by taking down pictures.
Why we, why we throw it all away?
Questioning why the relationship was thrown away.
Cuz we took it way too far and now there's nothing left to save
Realization that the relationship went too far and is beyond salvation.
I saw you look at her
Noticing the partner looking at someone else, indicating a shift in affection.
The way you looked at me
Comparing the partner's looks at the speaker and someone else.
Right in that moment I knew I had lost you
Realization of losing the partner in that moment.
And every time we talk
Communication breakdown, where words no longer have an impact.
We don't hear a thing
Afraid to admit that the relationship is over.
Too afraid to admit that we're through
Fear of acknowledging the end of the relationship.
The silence between us speaks louder than words
The unspoken tension and distance are more significant than words.
I can't see the difference now of what we are or what we were
Uncertainty about the current state compared to the past.
Is this the part where you walk away?
Repeating the question of whether this is the moment to part ways.
We throw it all away?
Considering the irreversible act of throwing away the relationship.
And we pretend we don't know us at all
Pretending not to recognize each other once the connection is severed.
What we had is distant memories
Describing the past love as fading memories with no solutions left.
Ran out of remedies
Exhausting all possible remedies for the relationship.
I rip our pictures all off of the walls
Symbolically removing pictures, erasing the physical traces of the relationship.
Why we, why we throw it all away?
Reiterating the question of why the relationship was thrown away.
Cuz we took it way too far and now there's nothing left to save
Acknowledging that the relationship went too far and is beyond saving.
Is this the part where you walk away?
Repeating the question of whether this is the moment to part ways.
We throw it all away?
Considering the irreversible act of throwing away the relationship.
What we had is distant memories
Describing the past love as fading memories with no solutions left.
Ran out of remedies
Exhausting all possible remedies for the relationship.
I rip our pictures off of the walls
Symbolically removing pictures, erasing the physical traces of the relationship.
Why we, why we throw it all away?
Reiterating the question of why the relationship was thrown away.
Cuz we took it way too far and now there's nothing left to save
Acknowledging that the relationship went too far and is beyond saving.
There's nothing left
Emphasizing
