Neither One Of Us
Unspoken Farewell: Love's Silent Goodbye
Lyrics
It's sad to think we're not gonna be here
Expressing sadness about the inevitable end of the relationship.
And it's gotten to the point
Indicating that a critical point has been reached in the relationship.
Where we just can't fake it
Acknowledging that pretending or faking the relationship is no longer possible.
For some ungodly reason
Referring to an unknown and challenging reason preventing resolution.
We just won't let it be
Expressing a reluctance to let go and allow the relationship to end.
I guess neither one of us
Suggesting that neither person in the relationship wants to face the reality of the breakup.
Neither one of us wants to be
Reiterating the reluctance of both individuals to initiate the farewell.
The first to say good-bye i keep wondering
Expressing the internal struggle to be the first one to say goodbye.
Wondering what I'm gonna do without you
Wondering about life without the partner and the challenges ahead.
And I guess you must be
Speculating that the partner might be going through similar thoughts and emotions.
Wondering the same thing too so we go on
Acknowledging the continuation of the relationship despite its falsehood.
Go on together living a lie
Living a lie together, emphasizing the mutual denial of the inevitable breakup.
Because I guess neither one of us
Reiterating the shared desire to avoid being the first to say goodbye.
Neither one of us wants to be
Reflecting the mutual reluctance to initiate the end of the relationship.
The first to say good-bye
Emphasizing the aversion to being the first one to utter the farewell.
Everytime I find the nerve
Highlighting the difficulty in finding the courage to leave.
Everytime I find the nerve to say I'm leaving
Describing the struggle to express the intention to leave.
Memories those old memories get in my way
Noting that old memories hinder the decision to part ways.
Lord knows it's only me only know it's me
Recognizing that the pain of missing the partner is felt by one person alone.
That I'm missing you
Acknowledging the emotional impact of missing the partner.
When it comes to saying good-bye
Expressing the difficulty in uttering the simple word 'goodbye.'
That a simple word that I just cannot say
Stating that saying goodbye is a challenge that cannot be overcome.
There can be no way there can be no way
Denying the possibility of a happy ending for the relationship.
This can have a happy ending no, no
Affirming the continuation of pain and pretense in the relationship.
So we just go on hurting and pretending
Acknowledging the self-deception in trying to give the relationship another chance.
Convincing ourselves to give it
Highlighting the internal struggle to convince oneself to try again.
Just one more try
Emphasizing the shared reluctance to be the first to initiate a goodbye.
Because I guess neither one of us
Reiterating the mutual desire to avoid being the first to say goodbye.
Neither one of us wants to
Affirming the shared sentiment of not wanting to initiate the farewell.
Be the first to say
Stressing the reluctance to be the first one to utter the word 'goodbye.'
Neither one of us wants to
Repeating the mutual aversion to being the first to say goodbye.
Be the first to say
Reiterating the shared reluctance to initiate the farewell.
Neither one of us wants to
Affirming the mutual desire to avoid being the first to say farewell.
Be the first to say farewell my love
Expressing the shared sentiment of not wanting to initiate the farewell.
Goodbye
Finalizing the acknowledgment of the impending farewell and departure.
