My Interpretation of
"Never Ever"
by All Saints

  This is a lyric poem about a girl who is wondering why and trying to find answers to why her boyfriend broke up with her.  The tone in this poem is very serious because she is really confused about her whole relationship with this boy.
    The speaker in this poem is a girl who is probably just a younger teenager.  We know this because it says "Boy I'm in a daze" (Line 18).  She is speaking to her ex-boyfriend and trying to find answers to what she is so confused about.  Also I would say that this was her first love because she is so upset and still trying to find herself.  We know this because she is so insecure and is blaming herself but doesn't know why.
    The title of this poem is significant because she thinks she is never going to get the answers to the questions that she wants the answers to.
    The theme of this poem could be, "even the best of things end".  From the lyrics in this poem you get the feeling that she did not want to break up with her boyfriend and that she thought the relationship was great.  He must have thought differently though.  He broke up with her. So what she thought was so great he thought had to end.
   I really think this poem is great.  It has the feeling that it is her first love and when you lose that first love you really so question yourself like that.  This poem seems very real. it deals with things that real people deal with, not a dream or fantasy.
 
Never ever
A few questions that I need to know
How you could ever hurt me so
I need to know, what I've done wrong
And how long it's been going on
Was it that I never paid enough attention?
Or did I not give enough affection?
Not only will your answers keep me sane
But I'll know never to make the same mistake again

You can tell me to my face,
Or even on the phone,
You can write it in a letter,
Either way, I have to know
Did I never treat you right?
Did I always start the fight?
Either way I'm going out of my mind
All the answers to my questions, I have to find

My head's spinnin'
Boy I'm in a daze
I feel isolated
Don't wanna communicate
I'll take a shower,
I will scour, I will run
Find peace of mind, the happy mind
I once owned, yeah!

Flexin vocabulary runs through me
The alphabet runs right from A to Zee
Conversations, hesitations in my mind
You got my *conscious asking questions that I can't find
I'm not crazy
I'm sure I aint done nothing wrong, no
I'm just waiting
Cus' I heard that this feelin wont last that long

Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me out of this black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feelin yeah, you got me feelin really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind
I've never ever had my conscious to fight
The way I'm feelin' yeah, it just dont feel right

Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me out of this black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feelin yeah, you got me feelin really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind
I've never ever had my conscious to fight
The way I'm feelin' yeah, it just dont feel right

I'll keep searchin' deep within my soul
For all the answers
Don't wanna hurt no more
I need peace, gotta feel at ease
Need to be
Free from pain, going insane
My heart aches, yeah
Sometimes vocabulary runs right through my head
The alphabet runs right from A to Zed
Conversations, hesitations in my mind
You got my conscious asking questions that I can't find
I'm not crazy
I'm sure I aint done nothing wrong,
Now I'm just waiting
Cus' I heard that this feelin wont last that long

Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me outta this black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feelin yeah, you got me feelin really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind
I've never ever had my conscious to fight
The way I'm feelin' yeah, it just don't feel right

Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me outta this black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feelin yeah, you got me feelin really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind
I've never ever had my conscious to fight
The way I'm feelin' yeah, it just don't feel right

Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me outta this**black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feelin yeah, you got me feelin really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind
I've never ever had my conscious to fight
The way I'm feelin' yeah, it just don't feel right

Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me outta this black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feelin yeah, you got me feelin really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own peace of mind
I've never ever had my conscious to fight
The way I'm feelin' yeah, it just don't feel right

You can tell me to my face
You can tell me on the phone
Ooh you can write it in a letter, babe
Cus I really need to know
You can tell me to my face
You can tell me on the phone
Ooh, you can write it in a letter, babe
Cus I really need to know
You can in a letter, babe (Repeat to fade)
 

*Personification - She is sayting that her conscious is asking questions.  A conscious is not a real thing, it is something that people believe in, therefore it cannot talk to ask the questions.

**Overstatement - In this line she is saying that she is so low and depresed that she is in a black hole.  That is an overstatement because she is not really in a blackhole the writer just uses it for effect.
