Song Meaning of “For No One” by David Lanz
For No One by David Lanz is a song of unrequited love that speaks to the pain and loss someone may experience when a partner no longer looks at them the same way. The lyrics convey the sense of sadness of being forgotten and ignored by a once loving and devoted companion. The song starts off with the lyrics “Have you ever felt so alone that you just can’t take it anymore.” This lyric conveys the feeling of being left out and alone when someone we love abandons us and no longer has feelings towards us.
The next line of the song “Like a song you can’t control, all you can do is listen and cry” symbolises the hopelessness the singer feels when all they can do is replay the situation in their mind, but are powerless to make it right.
The chorus of the song speaks to the heartbreak of being invisible to someone we once loved. “For no one, you’re a light that never shines, for no one, you’re love that never rhymes.” The lyrics express the sadness of being left alone and loveless when a relationship once filled with passion and desire has gone cold.
The bridge of the song conveys a sense of giving up when all hope of the love being rekindled is lost.
