What About Us
ATB featuring JanSoon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As a matter of fact,
There`s no turning back
Though I can`t deny,
I still want you back
No confidence, just hide and seek
Your weapon`s blood, is security

What about promises,
And what about the days I`m missing
What about, what about, what about us
What about the time of our lives
What about the things that you had
What about, what about, what about us

[Chorus: x4]
I'm waiting for you

I'm waiting
It's time to let go

[Chorus: x2]
I'm waiting for you
What about, what about, what about us

As a matter of fact,
There`s no turning back
Though I can`t deny,
I still want you back
No confidence, just hide and seek

Your weapon`s blood, is security
What about promises,
And what about the days I`m missing
What about, what about, what about us

I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for yo
What about, what about, what about us
What about, what about, what about us

As a matter of fact,
There`s no turning back
Though I can`t deny,
I still want you back
No confidence, just hide and seek
Your weapon`s blood, is security
What about promises,
And what about the days I`m missing
What about, what about, what about us

What about the time of our lives




What about the things that you had
What about, what about, what about us

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of ATB Feat. Jan Loechel's song What About Us reflect the emotions of someone who is struggling to move on from a past relationship. They are going through a period of internal conflict and are unable to commit to new relationships due to their lingering feelings for their ex-partner.


The opening lines, "As a matter of fact, there`s no turning back. Though I can't deny, I still want you back," illustrate the internal struggle and the desire to go back to how things used to be. The lines "No confidence, just hide and seek. Your weapon`s blood, is security" suggest that the person feels vulnerable and confused, while their ex-partner is their only source of comfort and security.


The chorus "What about promises, and what about the days I'm missing, what about, what about, what about us. What about the time of our lives, what about the things that you had, what about, what about, what about us" indicates that the person is questioning the value of their past relationship and wondering if it was worth it. The repeated lines "I'm waiting for you," reflect the individual's hope that their ex-partner may come back to them, while the closing lines "It's time to let go," suggest that the person realizes that they need to move on from the past and leave their hopes of a reunion behind.


Line by Line Meaning

As a matter of fact,
In actuality,


There`s no turning back
There is no reversal of what has happened


Though I can`t deny,
While I cannot argue the contrary,


I still want you back
I still have strong feelings for you


No confidence, just hide and seek
I lack self-assurance, only playing games of evasion


Your weapon`s blood, is security
Your violent actions provide me with a false sense of safety


What about promises,
What happened to the vows we made


And what about the days I`m missing
What about the times I long for but can't have


What about, what about, what about us
What happened to us, what are we now


What about the time of our lives
What about the good moments we had together


What about the things that you had
What about the possessions that you owned


I'm waiting for you
I have my hopes set on you


It's time to let go
It is time to move on and release the hold on these feelings
