About You
Even Vast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Innocence's gone way too easy
And you don't know how to face it
See your frail happiness
Is broken down by your desire
Tell me what to do
Tell me what to say
'Cos I don't really know it
Everywhere I go seems so far away
But you don't care about it
I am so scared about you
Because I don't know you at all




Will you care
As much as I will?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Even Vast's song About You tell a tale of lost innocence and lack of direction. The singer is addressing someone who has lost their youthful innocence, and is struggling to come to terms with it. They are searching for guidance on how to handle the situation, as they feel lost and alone. The singer expresses concern and fear for the person, as they do not fully understand what is happening to them, and they do not know if the person will be able to handle it on their own.


The lyrics are heavily emotional, and the singer is trying to convey a sense of empathy towards the person they are addressing, as well as a sense of desperation to help them. The line "I am so scared about you because I don't know you at all" shows that the singer is worried about the person's wellbeing, but also feels disconnected from them, as they do not fully understand what they are going through.


Overall, the song is a poignant reminder of the struggles and challenges that come with growing up and losing one's innocence.
