Enough Of Me Lyrics

This precise time and right here
Are not going anywhere
I’ve had enough of new todays
For once I’d like to go another way
I speak my last words and then remember it may never end
All that I’ve won I have lost
Each passing moment cuts me off
Well, I don’t like to waste a chance but they’re overflowing
What I don’t do will get done by somebody
When I was five I saw some plants ungrowing
Whether seen forwards or back they’d keep going
They’d keep going
If the seasons which change were all still
It’s so easy to see life would fail
Whatever slips out of our hands
Will find its way back to us once again
If the seasons which change were all still
It’s so easy to see life would fail
Whatever slips out of our hands
Will find its way back to us once again
Will find its way back to us once again
Will find its way back to us once again
Once again

I think these lyrics are slightly off. This is what I think they are:

This precise time and right here Are not going anywhere Ive had enough of new todays For once Id like to go another way

I speak my last words and then remember it may never end All that Ive won I have lost Each passing moment cuts me off

Well, I dont like to waste a chance but theyre overflowing What I dont do will get done by somebody When I was five I saw some plants ungrowing Whether seen forwards or back theyd keep going Theyd keep going

If the seasons which change were all still Its so easy to see life would fail Whatever slips out of our hands Will find its way back to us once again

If the seasons which change were all still Its so easy to see life would fail Whatever slips out of our hands Will find its way back to us once again Will find its way back to us once again Will find its way back to us once again Once again

It's an amazing song. One of my favorites already and I can't stop listening to it. I derive a lot of the meaning from the last lines:

"If the seasons which change were are still It's so easy to see life would fail. Whatever slips out of our hands will find its way back to us once again"

I interpret it as without our struggles and hardships, without knowing failure and grief, we can never succeed as humans. We need to go through periods of coldness and desolation, like a winter, in order to learn from it and grow further we emerge out of it, in our spring. I think he's saying that feelings of depression and sadness are temporary, that, whatever feelings of happiness "slipped out of our hands" will return to us eventually, just like spring does every year. Such a great song and message.

This is actually a song that shows true pain..yet by the end of it there is a closure of some sort.. it symbolizes death, and the rebirth that comes with it.. its not suicide exactly just the death of a bad piece of ones personality and how the same way as death it will form a new life

This song for me is about a couple of related things:

  • Realising 'now' and the fact it never goes anywhere, because all there ever is, is now.
  • Now exists always, it's never gone. Allow things to be, instead of seeking. Things will be the way they are.
  • If nothing changed, life would have no colour.
  • What we lose will find it's way back, we had no thing, there for no thing will find its way back (see other tracks, cba to look them up)
