The Heartache of Unspoken Love
In 'Once More,' d4vd delves into the emotional turmoil of a love that has left deep scars. The song opens with the poignant admission, 'I love you, three words I don't say anymore,' setting the stage for a narrative of heartbreak and emotional vulnerability. The artist reveals that his heart is 'torn' and 'taped up,' suggesting past wounds that have been superficially healed but still cause pain. This imagery of a fragile heart underscores the difficulty of moving on from a love that once seemed eternal.
The chorus captures the cyclical nature of his suffering, as he watches his loved one leave repeatedly, each time breaking his heart anew. The repetition of this painful experience is emphasized with the line, 'It replays in my head a million times,' highlighting the obsessive nature of his grief. The inability to 'move on as I should' speaks to the paralyzing effect of unresolved emotions and the struggle to find closure.
d4vd's lyrics also touch on the disillusionment that comes with broken promises. The line, 'No, not ever 'cause you said we were forever, that's some fable,' reflects a sense of betrayal and the realization that the promises of eternal love were nothing more than a comforting lie. This acknowledgment adds a layer of bitterness to the sorrow, making the heartache even more profound. Through 'Once More,' d4vd captures the essence of a love lost and the enduring pain that comes with it, resonating deeply with anyone who has experienced similar heartbreak.
