Madonna
Love Lost: A Heartbreaking Tale of Unrequited Dreams
Lyrics
I can't go on like a stupid fucking dream
Expressing frustration and disillusionment, feeling unable to continue living in a naive and unrealistic manner.
When all I've been is gone
Reflecting on a past state of being, implying a sense of absence or loss.
She stole your heart
Referring to someone who took someone else's affection or love.
A selfish smalltown queen
Describing the person who stole affection as self-centered and limited in perspective.
She's seventeen she looks like Madonna
Comparing the person who stole affection to Madonna, potentially suggesting an iconic or influential figure.
Well just forget that I am here in you
Feeling disregarded or forgotten in someone else's thoughts or actions.
That I was just a dream
Suggesting a realization that one's presence was only an illusion or temporary.
I saw the life leave your eyes
Witnessing the loss of vitality or spirit in someone else.
As all you wished
Implying that someone desired something that now seems unattainable.
Did hold on to something that will never leave
Holding onto something that cannot endure or remain.
From all that was part of me
Referring to things that used to be integral parts of oneself.
The soul breaks me
Expressing emotional pain or distress caused by a shattered spirit.
You're not alive
Stating that the person addressed lacks vitality or life.
Its over in the past now
Acknowledging that a situation or relationship is finished and belongs to the past.
You're over in the past where she is
Acknowledging that the addressed person is in the past, tied to the person who stole their heart.
Now
Simple affirmation of the current state of affairs or emotions.
And so she said that I am here in you
Referencing the statement made by another person regarding their presence in someone's thoughts or existence.
That I was just a dream
Echoing the sentiment that one's existence was merely a figment of someone else's imagination or temporary.
I saw the life leave your eyes
Reiterating the observation of vitality or life departing from someone else.
As all you wished
Reinforcing the idea that someone desired something that has become unattainable.
Did hold on to something that will never leave
Clutching onto something that will never endure or stay.
