In You
Bethany Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been stuck in the coldest time
Trying to find peace of mind
Makes ya wonder why
I should let you in
Give me one, good reason why
I should let you in
Cause I know it always ends
Maybe I'm better on my own
Maybe I should leave you alone
But I don't trust myself
Oh god I think I need help
Cause I want to let you in
Anytime you walk into a room
It's cold inside
And I'm just electrified
I don't wanna lose you
But I don't wanna walk this road with you tonight
Can't I just let you in
Without having to pretend
I should let you in
Cause I know it always ends
Maybe I'm better on my own
Maybe I should leave you alone
But I don't trust myself
Oh god I think I need help
Cause I want to let you in
I don't know what people mean
When they tell me, they want me
I guess I'm just numb to it now
I try not to make any sounds
Cause I don't want you to put me down
Leave before I'm done
I'm just scared to let you in
Cause there's always a chance
That you could walk away
Before I get to hold your hand
And call you my man
But I may be too scared to let you in




Give me one, good reason why
I should let you in baby

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bethany's song "In You" seem to speak of a struggle of being vulnerable and letting someone into her life after being hurt in the past. She expresses her fear of getting hurt again and her doubt towards the idea of opening up to someone new. The line "Maybe I'm better on my own" indicates a reluctance to involve herself in a relationship that might not end well, but at the same time, she longs to feel a connection with someone.


The repeated line "Give me one good reason why I should let you in" appears to be a plea for someone to understand her predicament and provide a convincing reason for her to trust them. It seems as though she's scared of being judged or put down by someone she's let in. However, she also expresses a desire to ease this feeling of being frozen every time they’re together, signifying that the person holds a special place in her life.


Overall, the lyrics showcase the inner struggle of trusting someone new while feeling the weight of past failures and apprehension.
