It's You
BØRNS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Her own reasons for talking to me
She don't, she don't, she don't
Give a fuck about what I need
And I can't tell you why
Because my brain can't equate it
Tell me your lies
It's you, it's you
It's you
It's you, it's you
It's you
I won't, I won't, I won't
Cover my scars
I'll let 'em bleed
So my silence
So my silence won't
Be mistaken for peace
Am I wrong for wanting us to make it?
Tell me your lies
Because I just can't face it
It's you, it's you
It's you
It's you, it's you
It's you
Could it be that it's a lesson
That I never had to learn?
I looked at it like a blessing
And now it's just a curse
I don't know why
I don't know why
It's you, it's you
It's you, it's you
It's you
The lyrics to BØRNS's song "It's You" speak to the complicated nature of relationships and the struggle to understand why someone is in our lives. The opening lines suggest that the woman in the song has her own motivations for talking to the singer, and doesn't necessarily care about his needs or desires. He is unable to understand why she behaves this way, and begs for her to tell him lies so that he doesn't have to face the truth.
The chorus repeats "It's you" multiple times, indicating that no matter how confusing the relationship may be, the singer cannot deny the pull he feels towards this woman. He is torn between wanting to hide his emotional scars and wanting to make the relationship work. The lines "Am I wrong for wanting us to make it? / Tell me your lies / Because I just can't face it" encapsulate this struggle perfectly.
The final lines of the song suggest that the singer is questioning whether this painful relationship is a lesson he needed to learn, or if he was better off before. Ultimately, he is unable to fully understand why he is so drawn to this person, but cannot deny the importance of their role in his life.

Why are you dead inside sweetie? Life is meant for the living, not the dead. You'll have plenty of time to play dead once you leave this place.
"Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn their back on life."
- Eleanor Roosevelt
Perhaps it is not life itself that has you feeling dead inside, rather your perspective on it...?
It all boils down to what you choose to focus on.
