Every Beginning Ends (feat. Benjamin Gibbard)

“Every Beginning Ends” by Noah Cyrus, featuring Benjamin Gibbard, is a poignant exploration of the gradual dissolution of a romantic relationship. The song captures the painful realization that love, once vibrant and all-consuming, has slowly faded away. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a couple who have grown distant, with the narrator lamenting the loss of intimacy and connection that once defined their relationship. The opening lines, “You went to sleep without saying you love me / I guess I thought you already knew,” set the tone for the song, highlighting the emotional distance that has crept in between the partners.

The chorus, “You have to wake up every morning / And choose to love someone / But I'm finding that harder the more that I'm falling out of love with you,” underscores the central theme of the song: the conscious effort required to maintain love. This sentiment is further emphasized by the nostalgic reflections on past moments of joy and affection, such as “You used to kiss me without a reason / No one's made me laugh like you do.” These lines evoke a sense of longing for the days when love was effortless and spontaneous.

Noah Cyrus and Benjamin Gibbard’s collaboration brings a raw, emotional depth to the song, with their voices blending seamlessly to convey the sorrow and resignation that come with the end of a relationship. The song’s title, “Every Beginning Ends,” encapsulates the inevitability of change and the bittersweet nature of love’s evolution. It serves as a reminder that while every relationship starts with hope and excitement, it can also face challenges that lead to its eventual conclusion. This song resonates with anyone who has experienced the heartache of falling out of love and the difficult process of letting go.
