It's Over Now
One Twelve Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What is this?
Numbers in your pocket
I remember when you
Used to throw those things away
Why do you wanna keep in touch now?
Who gave you a reason?
To act so shady
Baby you know
You can call me anytime
Anything you needed I would give it to you
Ooh, that's how much I care for you
You wanna act now
Never call me back now
Turning off your cell phone
Girl you know that ain't cool
Yes I don't understand baby yeah

Baby it's a shame we gotta go through this
We can't even talk
Girl we don't even kiss
I never would've thought
We'd be breaking up like this
But it's over now
It's over now

You think that I don't know what's going on
Cause you're always home alone
And I'm always out of town
You need to stop trying to play me
Cause you can't even fade me
I know you're messing around baby

Baby you know
You can call me anytime
Anything you needed I would give it to you
That's how much I care for you baby
You wanna act now
Never call me back now
Turning off your cell phone
Girl you know that ain't cool
Oh I don't understand baby

Baby it's a shame we gotta go through this
We can't even talk
Girl we don't even kiss
I never would've thought
We'd be breaking up like this
But it's over now
It's over now
Baby it's a shame we gotta go through this
We can't even talk
Girl we don't even kiss
I never would've thought
We'd be breaking up like this
But it's over now
It's over now

Baby it's a shame
A shame that we go through
The things that we go through
When you're in love with me
And I'm in love with you
I think that we should talk about our problems
Instead of running away
Oh baby it's a shame
We couldn't work it out
Forgot what love was all about
And the feelings we had from the start
My heart will always be with you, oh
Girl it's over

Baby it's a shame we gotta go through this
We can't even talk
Girl we don't even kiss
I never would've thought
We'd be breaking up like this
But it's over now
It's over now
Baby it's a shame we gotta go through this
We can't even talk
Girl we don't even kiss
I never would've thought
We'd be breaking up like this




But it's over now
It's over now

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to One Twelve's song It's Over Now are about a failed relationship. The song suggests that the person being addressed has been unfaithful, as indicated by the line "You think that I don't know what's going on, 'cause you're always home alone and I'm always out of town". The singer is hurt by the fact that the person who betrayed them is now trying to keep in touch, and acting shady. They had cared deeply for this person and were willing to help them whenever they needed it. Now the person has turned off their phone and not spoken to the singer in a long time.


The second verse of the song proposes that the couple needs to talk about their problems, rather than running away. The singer suggests that the issues between the two of them could possibly be worked out if they just talked to each other. The chorus repeats that "It's over now", even though it is clear that the singer still has feelings for the other person. The song captures the sadness and confusion that comes with the end of a relationship, and the hopelessness that can come with realizing that it's truly over.
