Never There Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you think about me cause I don’t have any doubt
You must in this life
Even though you’re never there, I didn’t feel you disappear
From sight, you did it well
[Chorus]
And now you and I share the same life missin' out
And so the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if I
I had the chance, I’d let you know that I understand
I’ve let you go
[Verse 2]
I don’t need you by my side I think by now I’m doin' fine
Myself, on my own
And I feel you time to time, like you're sending outta sign
I can tell you're not alone
[Chorus]
Because you and I share the same life missin' out
And so the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if the
The chance appears I’d have no fears
We both share pain, we feel the same
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus]
And now you and I share the same life missin' out
And so the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if I
I had the chance, I’d let you know that I understand
I’ve let you go
You and I share the same life missin' out
So the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if the
The chance appears, well I’d have no fears
We both share pain, we feel the same
Do you think about me cause I don’t have any doubt
You must in this life
Even though you’re never there, I didn’t feel you disappear
From sight, you did it well
And now you and I share the same life missin' out
And so the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if I
I had the chance, I’d let you know that I understand
I’ve let you go
I don’t need you by my side I think by now I’m doin' fine
Myself, on my own
And I feel you time to time, like you're sending outta sign
I can tell you're not alone
Because you and I share the same life missin' out
And so the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if the
The chance appears I’d have no fears
We both share pain, we feel the same
And now you and I share the same life missin' out
And so the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if I
I had the chance, I’d let you know that I understand
I’ve let you go
You and I share the same life missin' out
So the story goes
That we’re left, we’re stuck with a broken house
I know that if the
The chance appears, well I’d have no fears
We both share pain, we feel the same

I think this song is continuation of the story behind their song "Walking Disaster" released last year 2007 and that child in that story was only 1 year old. That song is about broken family where the father leave them and only mom raised the child. That's why "Never There" song is dedicated to single parent. So fast forward, after 13 years this song has been released as follow up of "Walking Disaster". As you can see in the official music video of "Never There" they celebrated 13th birthday of the son.
"Walking Disaster" is my most favorite song of Sum 41 since 2007 and "Never There" as my second favorite song :)
@jether That doesn't make sense, first off Walking Disaster is about anger and resentment towards the household the protagonist had to live in while he explicitly states he run away from it, it literally says "sorry, mom, but I don't miss you" while he also states that his father wasn't absent.

On the other hand, Never There doesn't talk to the parent that was there with the protagonist, but rather the parent who was never there (sounds familiar?) explaining how he have moved on and doesn't hold any resentment for it.
