Done With You
Dead Stop Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Year after year / your time passes by / you've had your
Career / now you wonder why / this world is done with... / the sacrifices you make /
To have it all / now it's too late / your wealth made you fall / this world is done with
You / you're setting new goals / but what are you still trying / cause no money in this
World / can stop you from dying / this world is done with you




Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dead Stop's song "Done With You" paint a haunting picture of a person who had it all, but now finds themselves alone and overshadowed by their obsession with money and power. The first verse sets the stage with lines like, "Year after year, your time passes by," hinting that the person has been living a fast-paced life for a long time. The second line, "You've had your career, now you wonder why," suggests that the person has achieved all their professional goals but still feels empty. The chorus drives home the point that the world has no use for someone who has lost their way: "This world is done with you / Your wealth made you fall/ Now it's too late/ This world is done with you."


The second verse offers a glimmer of hope as the person sets new goals, but the chorus reminds us that nothing can stop death, not even money. The song is a critique of the soullessness of modern society, where people are valued only for their financial success and not for their humanity. It is a warning that if we neglect relationships, compassion, and kindness in the pursuit of money, we will ultimately end up alone and forgotten. The line "This world is done with you" is a powerful reminder that we are only temporary residents of this earth, and it is up to us to make the most of the time we have.
