The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Nothing Moves Me Anymore" by the artist "Wonderland"

The lyrics of Wonderland's "Nothing Moves Me Anymore" express a state of profound apathy and emotional emptiness following the loss of love. The lyrical heroine, from whose perspective the story is told, describes her state as a "cold stone," devoid of feelings and color.

At the beginning of the song, we see memories of happy moments in the relationship, the joy and excitement they brought. But these memories only emphasize the gap between the past and the present. The heroine mechanically performs everyday actions - goes to work, answers questions - but none of this brings her satisfaction. She exists but does not live.

The repeated phrase "Nothing moves me anymore" is a cry of the soul, an expression of hopelessness and inability to feel anything again. The image of "flesh and blood" transformed into "skin and bones" vividly conveys the idea of spiritual emptiness. The heroine has lost not just a loved one, but a part of herself, her ability to feel and enjoy life.

[Corrina:]

When I had you

I could laugh until I cried

Throw my hands up

On a rollercoaster ride

[Leigh:]

When I had you

Oh you could make me as mad as hell

And drive me crazy

Aint that what's love about

[Kasey:]

But we always made it right

Yes and I was so alive

[All: Lead Jodi]

Nothing moves me anymore

I'm as cold as a stone

I was flesh and blood before

Now I'm only skin and bone

There are no signs of life

I've never felt this empty before

Nothing moves me anymore

(nothing no no nothing no moves me)

[Jodi:]

I go to work

I put in my time

If someone asks me

I just say I'm doing fine

[Sharon:]

When I get home

I pour a glass of red

Turn the lights down

Lay back on my bed

[Kasey:]

And I'll let my records play

I close my eyes and wait

[All: Lead Jodi]

Nothing moves me anymore

I'm as cold as a stone

I was flesh and blood before

Now I'm only skin and bone

There are no signs of life

I've never felt this empty before

Nothing moves me anymore

Ohhhh, nothing moves me anymore

[Corrina:]

Oh no

Nothing moves me anymore

I'm as cold as a stone

And the worlds at my door

Telling me to just move on

There are no signs of life

I've never felt this empty before

Nothing moves me anymore

[Sharon:]

No, nothing moves me

No, nothing moves me anymore

[Kasey:]

I go to work

I put in my time

If someone asks me

I just say I'm doing fine
