BECAUSE OF YOU
Destination Anywhere Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm trying not to drown
In the sea where I was thrown
I can't believe how bad I'm down
I always thought that I'm not bound

I'm walking circles in my room
I'm completely out of tune
My feelings seem to fade away
Just to come back the other day

And it's all because of you
And it's all because of you
And I don't want to miss you
All because of you
And it's all because of you
And I don't want to miss a thing

My friends lost sight of who I am
And it's senseless to pretend
That I'm the same 'cause I did change
Imbalance livin' in my head

All the compassion that is spent
It's a beginning, not an end
Oh all these good words cannot help
Reminding me that I had failed

And it's all because of you
And it's all because of you
And I don't want to miss you
All because of you




And it's all because of you
And I don't want to miss a thing

Overall Meaning

In "Because of You" by Destination Anywhere, the singer is struggling to cope with the pain and heartbreak caused by a past relationship. They feel lost and adrift, struggling to regain their sense of self amidst the emotional turmoil. The repeated refrain "And it's all because of you" underscores the deeply personal nature of their pain, emphasizing that every aspect of their current situation is a direct result of the actions of the person they were once involved with. They feel disconnected from their friends and their own emotions, unable to shake off the lingering effects of the relationship.


Despite the overwhelming sorrow and sense of loss depicted in the lyrics, there is also a sense of resilience and determination to move forward. The singer acknowledges that their life has been forever changed by this experience, but they refuse to let it define them. They don't want to forget the person they've lost, despite the pain, but they also don't want to be defined by that loss.


In many ways, "Because of You" is an exploration of the complex emotions and behaviors that can arise from a breakup. The lyrics capture the sense of disorientation and confusion that many people feel during this time, as well as the simultaneous desire to hold onto the past while also moving forward.


Line by Line Meaning

I'm trying not to drown
I'm struggling to stay afloat


In the sea where I was thrown
In a situation that I didn't choose


I can't believe how bad I'm down
I'm in disbelief of how low I am


I always thought that I'm not bound
I believed I was free until I realized my dependence on someone else


I'm walking circles in my room
I'm aimlessly going about with no purpose


I'm completely out of tune
I'm not in sync with life


My feelings seem to fade away
I'm dealing with emotional numbness


Just to come back the other day
Only to resurface again later


And it's all because of you
My current state of being is due to you


And I don't want to miss you
Despite everything, I don't want to forget you


All because of you
You had a huge impact on my life


My friends lost sight of who I am
My friends don't recognize me anymore


And it's senseless to pretend
Pretending that everything is okay is pointless


That I'm the same 'cause I did change
I have changed and can't pretend that I haven't


Imbalance livin' in my head
My thoughts and emotions are not in harmony


All the compassion that is spent
All the kindness shown to me


It's a beginning, not an end
It's the start of a healing process


Oh all these good words cannot help
Hearing all these positive things don't make me feel better


Reminding me that I had failed
They only remind me of my failures


And I don't want to miss a thing
I want to remember everything, even the difficult times
