Never Recover

I fucking love this song. I want to do a cover.

I'd say the song is talking about not being able to get over a break-up, while your ex is in love with somebody else, and the reality surrounding that situation.

Let's interpret this line-by-line:

"How I always memorize Every single misery And I seem to glorify Everything inside of me"

I feel like in these two verses she's talking about how she tends to focus on her negative emotions, and build them up to such a point where it's almost like she treats them more importantly than her positive feelings.

"And the hero never dies If the lover hides Between the sheets"

This line is a bit perplexing, but I feel like perhaps she's talking about her ex-partner, and how she manages to see them in a positive light (as a "hero"), just because the sex was good. However, I feel like the significance of "hides between the sheets", means that she doesn't actually think of them positively, and essentially just uses the memories of all that exhilarating sex as a false positive. This is re-enforced by the fact that she says the hero "never dies", almost as though she would want them to. This line is one of my favorites, because it perfectly tends to describe the internal tug-of-war between love and lust.

"There's no escape Cause you can't sleep"

This line is probably just talking about staying up laying in your bed thinking about all of the things mentioned above.

"And then you'll see You're just like me"

Not too sure on this line, perhaps she's hoping that her ex is also worrying about the same exact things?

"That's what you call waste of time I'll be waiting down the line"

Mentioning that she still wants to go back to her ex, even though her ex thought it was a waste of time.

"That's what you call waste of time Waiting for your valentine"

Her ex is obviously more focused on waiting for somebody else.

"That's what you call waste of time I know where your hero hides"

Not sure about this. Perhaps she's letting her ex know that she's aware of who her ex is going after?

"That's why you don't sleep tonight"

Perhaps this is a bit of a threat? Because she knows about her ex's new love, maybe she's planning something, and that's why her ex can't get to sleep at night, because they're worried about her ruining everything for them.

"That's what I call-- That's what you call-- That's what I call liiiife!"

If we take this in the context of the previous line, perhaps she's saying that there's nothing her ex can do about it, because 'that's just life'.

"With a hero in the past You hang on to history"

Perhaps time has passed now, and her ex started dating their new found love. however, like most relationships, things tended to crash and burn, resulting in a break-up. Now her ex is hanging onto their new love, just like how she's hanging on to her ex.

"Such a loss will always last And there's no recovery"

Perhaps she's letting her ex know from experience that there's no way to truly get over that kind of break-up.

Finally, the song goes back and repeats part of the first verse, and the chorus again, starting from "and a hero never dies" I feel like this is simply here to re-enforce everything she went through with her ex. I'd like to imagine she's explaining this to her ex, after her ex's break-up with their new love.

Anyway, this song is pretty fun & upbeat. I always enjoy singing along to it. What did you all think of my interpretation? Agree? Disagree? Let me know! ^_^

First interpretation: Agree. They broke-up. He is gone and will never come back. That's why she tends to think of her negative emotions. She knows that when he ended their relationship, he said goodbye for good.

Second interpretation: Agree. She see him as her hero. She thinks highly of him and she admires his priorities, and values. Disagree. It's about their being together. Her love for him. Just being with him is more than enough. It's not lust.

Third interpretation: Disagree. She is staying up late because she misses him and she loves him. Agree. Although she thinks of the negative emotions because she knows that they will never be together again.

Fourth interpretation: Not sure of this line too. I really have no idea. I really don't know. Maybe. If their not a couple anymore that means the guy is not thinking about her.

Fifth interpretation: Agree.

Sixth interpretation: Agree.

Seventh interpretation: Not sure in this line as well. She is aware that he has a new love.

Eighth interpretation: Why would they threat them? Why would she ruin them? If she can't recover that means she is still in love with him. Even if she still loves him, he is not in love with her anymore. That's why they are no longer a couple. That's why he has a new love.

Ninth interpretation: Agree.

Tenth interpretation: Agree.

Eleventh interpretation: Agree.

Your Finally... Agree.

Anyway, I never heard this song.
