It's Your Life
Milla Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Locked behind these wicked thoughts.
You and I,
We felt pain.
Passed from him, to me, to you.
Reaching out,
Into the empty space,
We lost our place.
It's your life.
It's your soul.
It's everything
You give to him.
It's my heart.
In your hands.
Keep it, or just let it fall.
Another stone,
Placed in my wall.
I brush away
The flaming hair across your cheek,
To see these eyes
That lit my life.
Now they're cold, and dark, and gone.
With your smile,
I'll cross this hopeless line,
But don't waste time.
[Chorus]
It's your life.
It's your mind.
Choices that you make, my love.
It's my heart in your hands.
Keep it, or just let it fall.
Another stone, placed in my wall.
Can't we see above
This wall?
In Milla's song It's Your Life, the lyrics delve into the complexities of a relationship in turmoil. The first verse delves into a shared dream and how pain and suffering have been passed from one person to another. The chorus then emphasizes the importance of personal choice, further emphasized by the repetition of the phrases "it's your life" and "my heart in your hands." The second verse highlights the fragility of the relationship as shown through the changing nature of the other person’s eyes and smile. The song concludes with the singer's plea to move past the barriers that have been placed between them.
Throughout the song, the imagery presented is strikingly vivid, particularly in descriptions of the other person's eyes and the physical barriers that keep the singer from connecting with them. The use of the phrase "placed another stone in my wall" to describe the pain inflicted upon the singer by the other person's actions is particularly poignant, indicating the permanence of the hurt felt.
Overall, Milla's “It's Your Life” is a beautifully written song that speaks to the fragility of relationships and the power of personal choice.

I first heard this song in "It's My Party" and fell in love with it. More so than any other song, it reminds me of what it was like living with AIDS in the 90s.
Joshua Mundy
Jaoyte Potter-Urbanek one of the best films ever made. Every gay man should watch that movie an fill their heart with understanding of the AIDS epidemic and learn to appreciate an love all the gays who came before us and fought for our right to love.
Justo Uribe
That's the exact reason why I keep this song in an USB and listen to it while driving ... eyes tearing and all... reminds me of watching that same film with some friends at our apartment ... The 90's was a Great decade !!!

Same to me. Amazing movie and beautiful and suggestive song. I love both of them.
Every time that I see "it's my party" my mind goes back in my 20s. So many remembers.
Some tears are always ready to run down my cheeks. So many types of love in that movie. Everyone expresses in a different way, but all strong and deep.
Daniela C

Liva Rahman
