It's Over
Milk Inc Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is the end
Next time I'll see you
We'll just be friends
We'll each wear our masks
After we say goodbye
And know we can't ask
For the reasons why
As much as I try
The moment's gone
And I can't keep time from marching on
We had it all, had it all, had it all
But it's over, it's over, it's over now
So hard to face, hard to face, hard to face
That it's over, it's over, it's over now
This is the last song
I'll sing for you
Next time I'll hear you
You'll be with someone new
It won't be easy
To fake a smile
But I can't let it show
I haven't closed the file
The lyrics to Milk Inc.'s song "It's Over" convey a sense of finality and resignation to the end of a romantic relationship. The singer acknowledges that this is the "last dance" and "the end" of their time together. They imagine their next meeting, when they will have to pretend to be "friends" and wear "masks" to hide the pain of their separation. The singer realizes that they cannot ask for "reasons why" the relationship has ended, and they can only accept that it's over.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "had it all, but it's over now" to emphasize the loss and finality of the situation. The singer tries to come to terms with the fact that time marches on and they cannot keep the moment from slipping away. The second verse describes how this is the "last song" the singer will sing for their former partner, and the "next time" they hear from them, they will be with someone else. The singer admits that it won't be easy to "fake a smile" and hide their true feelings, but they are not ready to fully let go by "closing the file."
Overall, the song captures the bittersweet feeling of the end of a romantic relationship, where the joyous memories of the past are tempered by the sadness of the present and uncertain future.
