Since You Lyrics – Anna of the North

Since You Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The singer is thinking about all the songs and words she could have shared, showing that she had a lot of feelings she never expressed. She remembers a special moment on a rooftop with the city view and a chance to be closer to someone she liked, but she felt too scared to take that step. It’s about hesitation and holding back emotions even when the moment feels right.

[Pre-Chorus]
She admits that she never told the person how much they affected her, so they’ll never really know the pain or frustration they caused. She hopes that maybe, someday, the feelings she kept inside might reach them through this song, but until then, it remains unspoken.

[Chorus]
The chorus shows that she has been deeply hurt, but even through the heartbreak, her emotions for this person were strong. Since that connection, nothing more has been said between them, leaving a sense of unfinished business and lingering feelings. It captures both vulnerability and the intensity of emotions that remain unexpressed. She is trying to process being broken while still caring deeply.

[Post-Chorus]
She watches the person leave in a cab, feeling unnoticed and ignored. Even though she wonders if things would have been different if they had acknowledged her, she realizes that nothing would have changed. Life continues as before, leaving her feeling invisible and disconnected.

[Verse 2]
The singer is now in a relationship with someone else, so she tries to stay away from the person she still has feelings for. She regrets meeting them because she keeps running into them around the city, which makes the city feel smaller and more suffocating. It’s about the struggle of moving on while reminders of the past keep appearing.

[Pre-Chorus]
Once again, she reflects that she never expressed the ways the person hurt her, so they’ll never understand. She hopes that maybe in the future they might hear the song and realize the emotions she bottled up, but for now, her feelings remain private and unshared.

[Chorus]
She repeats the thought that she has been broken by this person, yet even through that pain, she had strong emotions for them. No words have been exchanged since then, leaving a silent gap in their story. The chorus emphasizes the mix of heartbreak and lingering affection that hasn’t been resolved. It’s about quiet suffering and unspoken love.

[Post-Chorus]
Watching the person leave in their cab again, she feels the same sense of being unnoticed and left behind. She questions whether anything would have been different if they had seen her, but she knows life moves on and nothing really changes, keeping her stuck in the same emotional place.
