Said & Done
A Skylit Drive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been around
I've crossed all the lines
I only hope there comes a day you will realize
You're just a joke
Never listen to what I say
I've got a question, where would you be without me?
Don't be pretentious
I am the truth
I only hope there comes a day you will see
You lost everything when you lost me

Lights out, don't make a sound
All of your photographs are on the ground
No one can stop me now
Tonight I'm leaving you
You're just a fool
I've heard all your lies
How unfortunate it took so long to realize
You're full of shit if you think that I am letting this go
And when all is said and done you'll be the one alone

Don't be pretentious
I am the truth
I only hope there comes a day you will see
You lost everything when you lost me
Lights out, don't make a sound
All of your photographs are on the ground
No one can stop me now
Tonight I'm leaving you

I'm not letting this go
No time for turning back now
You are all alone
I'm not letting this go
And when all is said and done you'll be the one alone
Lights out, don't make a sound
All of your photographs are on the ground




No one can stop me now
Tonight I'm leaving you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of A Skylit Drive's "Said & Done" describe a relationship that has gone sour, with one partner feeling undervalued and disrespected by the other. The song’s narrator has "been around" and has "crossed all the lines," suggesting a level of experience and maturity that their partner lacks. They feel like they have been taken for granted and their contribution to the relationship has not been recognized. They express their disappointment that their partner "never listen[s] to what I say" and that they are "just a joke" – implying that they are not taken seriously. The singer poses a rhetorical question, asking where their partner would be without them – perhaps suggesting that they have provided emotional support, stability, or financial security.


The chorus of the song is a defiant proclamation that the singer is not willing to put up with their partner's behavior any longer. They declare that "lights out" and "no one can stop me now," indicating that they have resolved to leave the relationship. They repeat that their partner has lost everything by losing them and that they are a "fool" for not realizing their worth. The repeated use of the phrase "don't be pretentious, I am the truth" highlights the singer's frustration with their partner's lack of appreciation and their own confidence in knowing what they deserve.
