Up To You
Josh Auer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel the beat of your heart when it’s breaking down
See the town with the chuch bells ringing
All alone with the sun now beating down
Take it in or leave it behind
It’s up to you
Run away if you need to
Run away
It's up to you
Run away
Run away if you need to
Hide away
It’s up to you
Walk around hear the people laughing
When they’re up sure they’re up
But they must come down
See the world thru the eyes of the broken
And feel the pain of their words as you hit the ground
Take it in or leave it behind
It’s up to you
Up to you
Run away
Run away if you need to
Run away
Its up to you
Run away
Run away if you need to
Hide away
It’s up to you
Oh where did you go
You left in a hurry on your own
Well it’s too late to reason
It’s too late to make sense of it all
Run away
Run away if you need to
Run away
Its up to you
Run away
Run away if you need to
Hide away
It’s up to you
It’s up to you
It’s up to you
Look around hear the sound of the silence
Feel the beat of your heart with you’re breaking down
The lyrics of Josh Auer's song "Up to You" suggest a personal struggle and uncertainty. The song begins with the line "Look around, hear the sound of the silence," which implies that the singer is all alone and searching for clarity. He urges the listener to "take it in or leave it behind," indicating a choice must be made. The chorus repeats the phrases "run away if you need to" and "it's up to you," suggesting that the singer is lost and the listener must make their own choices to escape their problems.
The second verse delves deeper into the struggle of the singer, observing that the people around them may seem happy, but they too have struggles. He asks the listener to view the world through the eyes of those who are broken and empathize with their pain. The repetition of the line, "Run away, run away if you need to" implies the singer is still searching for an answer to their problems, reminding listeners that escape may be one solution, but not necessarily a complete one.
The final lines, "Oh, where did you go? You left in a hurry on your own. Well, it's too late to reason, It's too late to make sense of it all," suggest the singer has lost his own sense of direction and encourages listeners to make their own choices. Ultimately, the message is clear: the listener must choose their own path when faced with difficult decisions.

Well it’s too late to reason
It's impossible to make sense of the situation now
It’s too late to make sense of it all
The event has already happened and can't be undone

Heres a thought
Its all that weve got in the world
If we let it be
Were only as good as the fall
And heres a note
To say the words I couldnt say
Dear you
I say that youre the only one for me
Say that I will never ever leave
Dear you
I see the future growing old again
Settle down with no other girl in the world
Heres a thought
Youre all that Ive got in the world
If I let you go
Im only as good as the fall
Dear you
I say that youre the only one for me
Say that I will never ever leave
Dear you
I see the future growing old again
Settle down with no other girl in the world
Ooooo Aaaaaa
No other girl in the world
Dear you
I say that youre the only one for me
Say that I will never ever leave
Dear you
I see the future growing old again
Settle down with no other girl in the world
Sincerely
The one who gave his whole world for you
The one who gave his whole heart to you
Dear you
I see the future growing old again
Settle down with no other girl in the world
