It's About Time
Lillix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hate you, I love you
I just can't remember to forget you
Who are you, who needs you?
You make me feel alive, I die, so high
I'm crawling on the ground
I have found I can fly

One of these days it all comes together
One of those days that goes on forever
Think I sound crazy? Maybe, whatever
What's it all about?

[Chorus]
It's about life, it's about fun
It's over before it has begun
It's about you, it's about me
It's about everything between and I say
I'm saying goodbye to you, I say hi to you with no clue
It's about time that I
Make up my mind

It's simple, confusing, the truth is I'm winning but I'm losing
And pulling and pushing, won't do me any good
It could, it should
I'm honest to myself that the truth is I lied

One of these days it all comes together
One of those days that goes on forever
Think I sound crazy? Maybe, whatever
What's it all about?

[Chorus]
Time is creeping behind me, surrounding around me
Fading the words so desperately
Now give me a reason that I can believe in
Time is something you can't rewind
One of these days it all comes together
One of those days that goes on forever
Think I sound crazy? Maybe, whatever
What's it all about?





[Chorus]

I love their music! I remember listening to them a long time ago. Listening as an adult, their songs hold so much meaning! They’re underrated.

This song suddenly popped into my head today and fortunately I remembered the chorus so I was able to look up the lyrics. Damn, I haven't heard the name "Lillix" for so long. The NOSTALGIA.

Amyx Komari

Beautiful early 2000's pop music, oh I miss you! I wish I could go back to around 2000-2004. Pop music doesn't sound like this anymore. <3

2000s Pop Rock never dies! :)
