November
Inc. Milk Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not that bad at all
It's not that big a deal
Everyone's assuring me
My fortune's 'bout to change
But I've been here before
I don't need no one to tell me
That life is what you make of it
Believe me

November's here again
Raining down on me
I disappear again
Just like the memories
Let the days go by
So I can say goodbye to November
Say goodbye

It's not that long ago
But it's so far away
Everyone's assuring me
It was time to walk away
But I've been here before
I don't need no one to tell me
I know what you've been going through
Believe me

November's here again
Raining down on me
I disappear again
Just like the memories
Let the days go by
So I can say goodbye to November
Say goodbye

Say goodbye

November's here again
Raining down on me
I disappear again
Just like the memories
Let the days go by

So I can say goodbye to November
Say goodbye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Inc. Milk's song November depict themes of loss, loneliness, and the struggle to move on from past traumas. The song starts with the singer acknowledging that while people around them are trying to assure them that things will get better, they've heard this same sentiment before and are skeptical. They have a belief that life is what you make of it and that fortune will not necessarily change just because time passes.

The line "November's here again, raining down on me" suggests that the singer associates this month with something painful or difficult that they are trying to move on from. The singer feels as though they are disappearing, possibly from all the pain they are experiencing. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the desire to let time pass so that they can say goodbye to November and the memories that it brings.

Throughout the song, the singer communicates a sense of isolation and the idea that they don't need anyone to tell them how to feel or what to do. They have been through this before and understand what needs to be done in order to move on. The song has a somber tone, but the repetition of the chorus offers a sense of hope that the singer will eventually be able to say goodbye to the pain associated with November.
