Lyrics

Everything I had is gone and all I cared is dead

Loss and emotional devastation, everything cherished is now gone.

There's nothing to lean on, there's nothing to hold on

Emphasizing the absence of support and stability.

Now all is said and done left behind like a dream

Reflection on completed actions, feeling abandoned like a dream.

There's nowhere to go nowhere to go to

Expressing a sense of aimlessness and hopelessness.


I thought I had it all

Repetition of the belief that everything was once possessed.

I thought I had it all

-

I thought I had it all

-

I thought I had it all

-

You took it all, all away, left me there, there to stay

Addressing the person who took everything away, leaving the speaker alone.

Feeling so cold now I'm on my own now

Feeling emotionally cold and abandoned after the loss.

Why should I live my life anymore

Questioning the purpose of continuing life without what was lost.

You are gone and I lost it all

Acknowledging the irreversible loss and emptiness.

There's nothing to lean on, nothing to hold on

Reiterating the absence of support and stability.


You were everything in my heart,

Affirming the significant role the person played in the speaker's heart, but also expressing determination to move forward.

And my heart still beats, these empty beats

-

You were everything in my heart,

-

And my heart will go on, without you

-

Still I have to carry on, carry on and on

Commitment to carry on despite the lack of direction.

There's nowhere to go to, nowhere to go to

Reiterating the feeling of nowhere to go.

I'll hope this pain will fade away, fade away some day

Expressing hope for the eventual fading of emotional pain.

There's nothing to live for, there's nothing to die for

Describing a state of emotional emptiness and lack of purpose.


I thought I had it all

Repetition of the belief that everything was once possessed.

I thought I had it all

-

I thought I had it all

-

I thought I had it all

-

You were everything in my heart,

Acknowledging the irreplaceable role of the person in the speaker's heart and the determination for life to continue.

And my heart still beats, these empty beats

-

You were everything in my heart,

-

And my heart will go on, without you

-

You were everything in my heart,

Repeating the importance of the person and the resilience to move forward.

You were everything in my heart,

-

You were everything in my heart,

-

And my heart still beats, these empty beats

-

You were everything in my heart,

-

And my heart will go on, without you

-

You were everything in my heart,

Final affirmation of the person's significance in the speaker's heart.

You were everything in my heart.
