Cars
LUCAS LEX Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I fall fast asleep
I hear you in my dreams
Your whispers call to me, to me
And if the earth shall take
My body bones and veins
I hope you stay the same, the same

I ain′t a mystery, look at my history
I've been on my own since you′ve been gone
Watch as I breakdown, I'll be ok now
I've been on my own since you′ve been gone
I′ve been on my own since...
I've been on my own since you′ve been gone
I've been on my own since...
I′ve been on my own since you've been gone

(Voices talking)
"I′ve been on my own since you've been gone"

I will try hard these days
Cause I can't find out
What the reason for my doubt is
I have to find out

(Voices talking)
"The thing is, that′s not the point anyways,
I was asked whether I had you or not and from then on,
The whole bit about how far it′s going to go and how many people he's
Going to encourage is up,
And he′s in newspapers and on television... (Incoherent speaking)"

I ain't a mystery, look at my history
I′ve been on my own since you've been gone
Watch as I breakdown, I′ll be ok now
I've been on my own since you've been gone
I′ve been on my own since...
I′ve been on my own since you've been gone




I′ve been on my own since...
I've been on my own since you′ve been gone

The repetition of "I've been on my own since you've been gone" emphasizes the depth of the artist's isolation and suggests that they are still struggling to come to terms with the loss. However, towards the end of the song, the artist appears to be more determined to move on and finds motivation to try harder to overcome their doubts.


Overall, the song "Cars" is a poignant reflection on love, loss, and independence. Through the artist's passionate lyrics, the song captures the sense of longing that can arise when someone close to us is no longer around, as well as the mental struggle that one experiences when trying to find the courage to move forward.
