Make it So
Granian Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've been suffering for so long,
You can't handle it on your own
They'll all understand when you're gone
That you can never make it come undone
Do you want to try to make it so

Time and again, we're left here wondering,
What made you go down that road
You pushed away and hid behind a smile,
For them not for you,
They'll never understand what you've done,
You're breaking all the rules.

It brands your eyes
Melts your soul
Back around into another time
Might make it so hard to live
Without you there

Then they always seem
To push you where you
Tend to get knocked down,
Again and again.

Nobody knows the real reason now,
Still they watch and still we pray for you that you're
Looking down from above the moon.

It brands your eyes
Melts your soul
Back around into another time
Might make it so hard to live
Without you there
It brands your eyes
Melts your soul
Back around into another time




Might make it so hard to live
Without you there

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Granian's Make It So seem to touch on the theme of depression and suicide. The first verse talks about someone who has been suffering for a long time and is unable to handle it on their own. They believe that others will only understand their pain after they are gone and that it is impossible to undo what has already been done. Then the chorus comes in, with the question, 'Do you want to try to make it so?' suggesting that there is still hope and that the person should not give up just yet.


The second verse starts with the phrase 'Time and again', hinting at a repeated pattern of negative thoughts and actions. The person is described as having pushed away their loved ones and hiding behind a fake smile. They feel that nobody will ever truly understand why they are doing what they are doing and how much they are hurting. The line 'You're breaking all the rules' could refer to the norms of society or even the rules of life itself. The bridge talks about how this pain and suffering 'brands your eyes' and 'melts your soul', taking you back in time and making it hard to live in the present without the person who is gone. The last stanza expresses the regret and confusion that comes with losing someone to suicide, with the line 'Nobody knows the real reason now'.


Overall, Make It So is a poignant reminder that mental health struggles are real and that there is always hope for a better tomorrow. The song encourages us to reach out for help and support, to not give up on ourselves, and to remember the impact that our actions have on those around us.

At that point, they always appear,


To push you where you
To guide you towards,


Tend to get knocked down,
Where you usually get defeated,


Again and again.
Repeatedly.


Nobody knows the real reason now,
Currently, no one knows the true cause,


Still they watch and still we pray for you that you're
We continue to observe and hope that you are,


Looking down from above the moon.
Gazing upon us from beyond the lunar surface.
