Everything Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Gaslight45 

Cover art for Everything lyrics by Ben Howard

the way i see this song is that a girl has just left him and he's left sitting in his house and everything around him is the same except the fact that she isnt there, he feels like the world is forcing him to move on because no it feels like it never happened. i think this whole song is basically a break-up song with a bit of a twist

My Interpretation

A girl has left him, however it's not a break up song. Ben's partner took her life early into the relationship. Listen to Follaton Wood & Wouldn't Be A Lie. They're heavily about it.
