Whats the meaning of the music video of Daughtry's Over You?

Answer 1

Chris Daughtry said that this song is about how hard it is to get over somebody and then when you finally do something better comes along. In the video though it is not only a breakup but an alcohol addiction as well.

Answer 2

Ok. Well, the song is called Over You. He is being dumped by his girlfriend, but he is telling her that he is over her. Like the saying, "One door closes and another one opens." To me, the story seems to be deeper. It seems as if the girl was a drug addict and she ended up getting her boyfriend seriously hurt orkilledin a cra accident. As reffering to the "you" in the song, it seems to be the drug, but it could be the boyfrined. At the end, the girl makes the rightchoice and ges to a support group. -Happi Baby-

Answer 3

Now that it?s all said and done, I can?t believe you were the one

To build me up and tear me down like an old abandoned house

What you said when you left, just left me cold and out of breath

I felt if I was in way to deep, guess I let you get the best of me

Well, I never saw it coming, I should have started running

A long, long time ago

And I never thought I?d doubt you, I?m better off without you

More than you, more than you know

I?m slowly getting closure, I guess it?s really over

I?m finally getting better

And now I?m picking up the pieces, spending all of these years

Putting my heart back together

'Cause the day I thought I?d never get through

I got over you

You took a hammer to these walls, dragged the memories down the hall

Packed your bags and walked away, there was nothing I could say

And when you slammed the front door shut, a lot of others opened up

So did my eyes so I could see that you never were the best for me

Well, I never saw it coming, I should have started running

A long, long time ago

And I never thought I?d doubt you, I?m better off without you

More than you, more than you know

I?m slowly getting closure, I guess it?s really over

I?m finally getting better

And now I?m picking up the pieces, spending all of these years

Putting my heart back together

'Cause the day I thought I?d never get through

I got over you

Well, I never saw it coming, I should have started running

A long, long time ago

And I never thought I?d doubt you, I?m better off without you

More than you, more than you know

Well, I never saw it coming, I should have started running

A long, long time ago

And I never thought I?d doubt you, I?m better off without you

More than you, more than you know

I?m slowly getting closure, I guess it?s really over

I?m finally getting better

And ow I?m picking up the pieces, spending all of these years

Putting my heart back together

Well, I'm putting my heart back together

'Cause I got over you and I got over you

And I got over you

'Cause the day I thought I?d never get through

I got over you
