It's Over
Down And Outs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're so easy to contrast
I will run until the sun comes up
Chasing the horizon but I can't find the answer
Don't stress, nothing but a lost cause
Post your holocaust on the millions of others who've crossed your path
The others who've crossed your path
I guess nothing's new
I'll get over it
Brush it off my shoulder, get up 'cause I can't take a hint, woah
I guess nothing's new
Look at me and tell me that you ain't got a clue, woah
I'll get over it
Brush it off my shoulder, get up 'cause I can't take a hint, woah
I tried to spеak, but I'm spurting out slurs
Every other week something еlse occurs
I've got some words, but it feels underwhelmed
I'm stuck inside a new dimension screaming like hell
On the day, falls inspires like a corpse
I won't wait for your love to return
I'm better off by myself and I've got no remorse
I guess nothing's new
Look at me and tell me that you ain't got a clue, oh
I'll get over it
Brush it off my shoulder, get up 'cause I can't take a hint, woah
I guess nothing's new
Look at me and tell me that you ain't got a clue, woah
I'll get over it
Brush it off my shoulder, get up 'cause I can't take a hint, woah
Oh, I know
I should go slow
You think that you know me, you don't really know me
Oh, I know
I should just stop
You think that you know me, you don't really know me
Oh, I know
I should go slow
You think that you know me, you don't really know me
Oh, I know
I should just stop
You think that you know me, you don't really know me
The lyrics of Down And Outs's song 'It's Over' seem to be addressing someone who thinks they are superior to others, but in reality, they are not. The person being addressed may take pleasure in seeing others fail or suffer. However, the song warns that there may come a time when their pride is stripped away, and they realize they have lost everything they held dear. At this point, they may need someone to save them, but there will be no one around.
The singer seems to question where this person will be when they need help. They ask where they will hide when everything they know is said and done. The song implies that the person's castle will come crumbling down, and they won't be able to put their world back together. At this point, the singer says they won't be there to help.
The song is a warning of sorts, saying that being too proud or too superior can lead to a downfall, and if that person doesn't have anyone to turn to when everything goes wrong, they may be left alone and vulnerable.
Line by Line Meaning
You must be happy with yourself
It appears as though you are satisfied with who you are
You think you're so much better than me
You believe that you are superior to me in every way
Why do you love to see me fail so much
What is the reason that you take pleasure in observing my shortcomings?
'cause on that day you crawl back on your knees
On a specific day, you will be in a state of great desperation and will beg for my help
Tell me who will save you
I am curious as to who will come to your rescue when you are in need
When there's no one else around
In a situation when there's nobody available to assist or aid
And you can't turn to me
And you can't depend on me for support
Tell me where will you be
I'm inquiring as to your whereabouts during that time
When it's over
When everything has concluded
And all this pride you hold inside
And all of the egotism you hold within
Is gone
Will have disappeared
Tell me where will you hide
I would like to know where you will take refuge
And everything you know is said and done
And everything that you are aware of has come to a conclusion
When it's over, where will you run
When the end has arrived, where will you go?
Do your memories haunt your dreams
Do your recollections trouble your sleep?
Do they simply seem to have a mind of their own
Do they appear to have a life and personality of their own?
Tell me what the emptiness brings
Please convey what the void represents
When everything you know is everything but gone
When all that you have ever known is almost eradicated from existence
You can't hold your world together now
You can no longer keep your life from falling apart
Everyone sees who you really are
Now everyone else sees your true self
When your castle crumbles at your feet
When everything you have built disappears into ruin right in front of you
Don't you run to me
Do not approach me for support or refuge
And all this pride you hold inside is dying
And all of the conceit you possess is deteriorating
When it's over
When life is coming to an end
Tell me where will you hide
Where will you try to take shelter
And everything you know is said and done
When everything you've learned or experienced has concluded
When it's over, where will you run?
After everything is done, where can you escape?
