Make Up Your Mind
The Theory of a Deadman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
Those words that you said to me, why wasn't I listening?
I wish I hadn't met you at all, I started thinking
I'll sit back and relax and wait for the morning

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
The last time you yelled at me I swore that I heard you say
I wish I hadn't met you at all, I started thinking
I'l sit back and relax and wait for the morning

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time

When will we make up, will we break up?
Let's wake up, let's wake up, let's wake up

Make up your mind and I'll make up mine
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
Those words that you said to me, why wasn't I listening?
I wish I hadn't met you at all, I started thinking

We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
We'll wake up, we'll make up and do this for the last time
If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
So wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time
Let's wake up, let's make up and do this
For the last time




If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds
Let's wake up, let's make up

Overall Meaning

The Theory of a Deadman's "Make Up Your Mind" is a song about a couple who are going through a rough patch in their relationship. The lyrics tell the story of a partner who is fed up with the constant indecision of their significant other, and after hearing hurtful comments in an argument, starts to question whether the relationship was ever worth it. Despite this, the singer is ultimately hopeful that they can make things work and pleads with their partner to make up their mind and commit to the relationship.


One interpretation of the lyrics is that the couple is stuck in a cycle of breaking up and making up, and the singer is tired of the emotional rollercoaster. The lines "If we break up, we'll wind up losing both of our minds" and "Let's wake up, let's make up and do this for the last time" suggest a sense of urgency and a desire for resolution. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the singer willing to give the relationship one last chance.


In a broader sense, "Make Up Your Mind" could be interpreted as a commentary on the difficulties of commitment and communication in modern relationships. The song's catchy chorus and relatable lyrics make it a popular choice for those going through similar experiences.
