Navigating the depths of regret and longing, Conrad Sewell's poignant lyrics explore the emotional aftermath of a lost relationship. The song delves into themes of self-reflection and remorse, as the narrator acknowledges his shortcomings and expresses a desire to mend what has been broken. The recurring motif of a "hole in the middle" symbolizes an unhealed wound, signifying the lingering pain and emptiness left by the separation. Despite this void, there is an underlying hope for redemption and renewal, as indicated by repeated pleas to "start again." This duality captures the complex interplay between sorrow and resilience, ultimately portraying a journey towards personal growth and reconciliation.
Start Again
Lyrics
Home time, I'm getting ready for a long night
They say you never miss it 'til it's gone
Well you're gone and I wish I'd done it better
Mostly I miss having you close to me
The only one who really ever knows me
And I'm sorry, I promise I'll do better, better
There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
Can we start again, can we start again?
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
It never mends, can we start again?
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Some nights, I kid myself I treated you right
Lying to myself, I didn't know
If I'm honest, I could've done it better
You said we had it pretty much perfect
And then you told me that you loved me
But you're sorry, you needed something better, better
There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
Can we start again, can we start again?
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
It never mends, can we start again?
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
So I guess I'm gonna let you go
But you get to keep a little bit of my soul
So I guess I'm gonna write you out
But I don't think I can do it to me right now
Let's pretend
That time heals all
There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
But I'm not afraid to start, again
Start again, I'm gonna start again
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
It never mends
But I've gotta try
To start again
