Over You
Graffiti6 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lay down your armor baby
No need to fight no more
'Cause I have been wondering darling
We should just stop this war

But it’s alright
Nothing lasts forever baby
It’s alright
Now I can dance

'Cause I’m over you
This time is the last time
I’m over you
I can change
Said I am over love
This time is the last time
Always my love

No need for arguments
Just walk through the door baby
Sometimes I don’t know what we’re talking about
You lose yourself I lose myself baby

But its alright
Nothing lasts forever baby
Its alright
Now I can dance

'Cause I’m over you
This time is the last time
I’m over you
I can change
Said I am over love
This time is the last time
Always always

And maybe yeah it took a long time
When you’re running away from truths you can’t find
Maybe yeah it was a hard time
When love had gone

Now I’m over you
This time is the last time
I’m over you
I can change
Said I am over love
This time is the last time
Always always

Now I’m over you
This time is the last time
I’m over you
I can change
Said I am over love




This time is the last time
Always mmm

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Graffiti6’s ‘Over You’ depicts the end of a tumultuous relationship. The beginning lines of the verse “Lay down your armor baby, no need to fight no more” suggest an exhausted plea for the couple to stop fighting, to let their guard down and be vulnerable. The singer then suggests that "It’s alright, nothing lasts forever baby, It’s alright, now I can dance" indicating that the relationship has come to an end, but it's okay. The artist declares to be “over you” and that this time is the last time, hence indicating that the relationship is over and there is no going back. The chorus "I am over love, always my love" is an admission that the relationship is not the only thing that they are over, but love, in general, hence indicating that the breakup has caused disillusionment and loss of faith in love.


The second verse further throws light on the toxic state of the relationship, implying that arguments are entirely unproductive, and they do not even understand the point they are trying to put across. The line “You lose yourself I lose myself baby” suggests that both parties in the relationship have lost their individuality in the process of trying to make the relationship work. The bridge “And maybe yeah it took a long time when you're running away from truths you can’t find, Maybe yeah it was a hard time when love had gone” accentuates the pain and the difficulty that came with the end of the relationship but declares that the singer has moved on and grown stronger.


Overall, the song's message is of moving on and personal growth. The lyrics illustrate that sometimes it's hard to leave what's comfortable, but it's necessary for growth and development. The singer portrays a sense of evolution and transcendence that comes with overcoming the struggles of heartbreak.

Sometimes letting go is the hardest thing to do, but when it has to be done, it has to be done! Especially when that person continues to let you down, lie and make you feel like there's absolutely no reason to continue...

I've been looking for a pre-recorded version of this song since I heard it on the finale of Single Ladies. Thank you for uploading. This song gives you strength to do what NEEDS to be done as opposed to what you WANT to do.

Tara Hollis

Nice song. Especially for someone who just broke up with the one they needed to let go.
