Back To You
Stik Figa x D/Will Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You set the bar high enough a thousand lamps won't do
It's taking all my strength to keep myself from running back to you
Going on a date I can't help feeling out of place
Wine and chandeliers don't feel special if you're not here
It's taking all my strength to keep myself from running back to you
Running back to...
I'm fighting the battle of pleasure and pain
My memories fight the battle of pleasure and pain
the highest mountains and the lowest valleys
I thought the sadness had passed
but driving home in the dark I had this relapse
as the streetlights blur into a haze
tonight all I'm beggin' for is the light of your face
It's taking all my stregth to keep myself from running back
it's taking all my strength to keep myself from running back to you

The first verse sets the tone of the song with the comparison of a ray of sunshine to a streetlight. The singer implies that even the brightness of a thousand lamps can never compare to the light that the significant other has brought into their life. The realization of this sets the stage for the chorus, which highlights the struggle of moving on from the relationship. Despite being on a date and surrounded by luxury, the singer cannot help feeling out of place and missing their significant other. They fight the emotions of pleasure and pain that they associate with their memories of the relationship.
The bridge emphasizes the peak of the internal struggle. The singer thought they had moved on from the pain but had a relapse while driving in the dark. The streetlights blur, and the singer craves the light of their significant other's face. The final chorus repeats the theme of struggling not to run back to the relationship.
This song explores the difficulty of getting over a relationship and coming to terms with the intense emotions that come with it. It's a relatable struggle that many people have faced.
