It's You
J-Art & Madan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For the second time this week
You wished me luck and watched me go
After that we didn’t speak
What happened next I can’t recall
It’s probably best that way
There’s no place I’d rather be
Slowly wasting away
What’s out there that's meant for me?
Or rest more comfortably
It’s a good life if you allow it to be
For all the unremarkable days
There’s love and light and predictability
And no one’s gonna hear complaints
About tired, casual stability
And I think all the time ‘bout
All the things that I’m ‘bout, no doubt
And the things that might have been
But there are better ways to spend my days than
Digging holes just to fill them in
Lying awake most nights and wondering
What’s out there that's meant for me?
Or rest more comfortably
It’s a good life if you allow it to be
Lying awake most nights and wondering
What’s out there that's meant for me?
Or rest more comfortably
It’s a good life
Spend so much precious time just wondering
What’s still to become of me?
Or sleep more soundly
It’s a good life if you allow it to be

I dreamed I found an easy out
I had a dream that I found a way to escape my problems
For the second time this week
This is the second time this week I've had this dream
You wished me luck and watched me go
You wished me the best and watched me leave
After that we didn’t speak
We stopped talking after that
What happened next I can’t recall
I don't remember what happened next
It’s probably best that way
It's better that I don't remember
There’s no place I’d rather be
There's nowhere else I'd rather be
Slowly wasting away
I am slowly deteriorating
Lying awake most nights and wondering
I spend most nights awake, thinking about
What’s out there that's meant for me?
What is my purpose or destiny?
Or rest more comfortably
Or maybe I should just relax and rest
It’s a good life if you allow it to be
Life can be enjoyable if you let it
For all the unremarkable days
For all the ordinary and uneventful days
There’s love and light and predictability
There is love, positivity, and routine
And no one’s gonna hear complaints
No one wants to hear me complain
About tired, casual stability
About a monotonous but stable life
And I think all the time ‘bout
I constantly think about
All the things that I’m ‘bout, no doubt
My qualities and my beliefs, without a doubt
And the things that might have been
And the things that could have happened
But there are better ways to spend my days than
But there are more fulfilling things to do
Digging holes just to fill them in
Than doing something meaningless
Spend so much precious time just wondering
I waste a lot of valuable time just questioning
What’s still to become of me?
What will my future hold?
Or sleep more soundly
Or maybe I should just sleep peacefully
It’s a good life if you allow it to be
Life can be enjoyable if you let it
