Without Warning
Improbable people Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

R. Villar / J. E. Fernández

I'm sure you had a reason
Just why you had to go
Bur it's no less a treason
‘Cause I didn't know

How do I take this ending?
I didn't have a say in it
The words you will be sending
I don't care to know

You left without warning
You went away and broke my heart
How can I stop mourning?
When I think of you I start
To cry

At least you'll stop pretending
You're going to keep your promises
The dreams I had, the pain this is
I wish I'd known

When you said you were leaving
I didn't have a say in it
Is there someone you're seeing?
I deserve to know

You left without warning
You went away and broke my heart
How can I stop mourning?
When I think of you I start
To cry

You said you'd never do me harm
Were you lying?
You said you'd always keep me warm
Just tell me did you even
Try?

I lasted you a season
And now the fall is here to stay
You should've had the guts to say
I don't need you anymore

You left without warning
You went away and broke my heart
I wake up every morning
To something I can't understand

I never saw it coming
You said you loved me all along
You were only playing




Betraying every thing you said
Why?

Overall Meaning

The song Without Warning by Improbable People is a poignant ballad about the aftermath of a sudden breakup. The lyrics convey the confusion, pain, and frustration of someone who has been left without any explanation or closure. The song opens with the singer expressing disbelief and hurt at the sudden departure of their partner, questioning whether there was any valid reason behind it. Despite the implication that there was some reason given, the singer still feels betrayed because they were not given a chance to make a decision or update their expectations. However, they appear to have some insight that the departure was ultimately for the best.


The singer grapples with the seeming impossibility of moving on, even though they have been wronged. They plead for answers, wanting to know if their partner found someone else, making it clear that they deserved better than to be left in the dark. The chorus is a thematic refrain of the sudden loss and the intense emotional reaction it elicits, driving home the reality of the singer's predicament, and the weight of the loss they feel. The bridge of the song takes a turn by questioning the validity of the relationship itself, suggesting that the partner may have been lying all along about their intentions and feelings.


Overall, Without Warning is a beautifully crafted song that explores the universal experience of heartbreak and loss in a relatable and poignant manner. It is a haunting ode to the pain and confusion of being left without warning, with no explanation or closure.

I manifested my wife, my own new house and professional growth in less than 2 yrs. It's really easy, just imagine! Thanks Joseph for your sharing and teaching manifestation in such an easy way.

@krissymarie5270

Did you use SATS at night or visualize throughout the day? Imaginal conversations, or scripting by any chance?

@paulgeorge9228

@ChristinaPiccoli

When I was 7 my stepmom told me and my brothers she was pregnant. I begged God for twin sisters. When I told my stepmom I wanted twin sisters and she laughed. Until her 7th month of pregnancy when she found out she was having twins - girls. I've manifested other great things too, but that one was totally illogical. My 7-year-old brain didn't care about logic. I just wanted what I wanted.

@krissymarie5270

That is awesome!

@summerthomason939

I manifested my sister, too! My mom told me if I wanted a sister, I better wish for one ( it was my birthday & just met her boyfriend). I did. The following year, we were bringing my baby sister home on MY BIRTHDAY! I literally wished for her on my bday and got her home coming on my 7th bday!

@ChristinaPiccoli
