About You
The Vision Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Errr... I just Wanted to say f*ck You
You were beautiful until i knew you
Now You're Not Beatiful because now I Know You
You found me beautiful before you knew me
But i'm not beautifull
And, now You Know who I am
Oh... What did you expect from me with all your pretty lies?
I'm not as stupid as you might think
Oh... What did I expect from You?
This is What it's all about...
I may be a hoper but with desperate wings...
You made me hope of a true friend
You made me think I was loved
But I was wrong...
Oh, I know that these time
True love doesn't exist anymore
Now it's just a basic thing that we consume and then throw away.
But What if I loved You?
Oh... You look so pretty now with this guy by your side
But does he even love you at all?
All my toxicity looks so ridiculous compared to your's...
Compared to your's
Who really is the toxic one?
Who really is the toxic one?
Please answer me...
(F*ck)
I tried not to say that but this time you pushed the limits too hard
so don't cry in my arms when it's over
...
Girl, I just want to say that
I still love you as hard as the first day
And I wanted to tell you that
All this hate comes from the fact that
I miss You
Please don't be indifferent...
I was only dreaming to find my place in the world
But now, I realise that




What ever i'll try
I would never succeed...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Vision's song "About You" reflect the singer's journey of discovering the true nature of a person they were once infatuated with. The song begins with a strong expression of anger and disappointment towards the person, stating "Errr... I just Wanted to say f*ck You." The singer acknowledges that the person was once regarded as beautiful, but as they got to know them better, their perception shifted, and they now consider them not beautiful anymore. The idea of beauty is subjective, and it is influenced by one's knowledge and understanding of a person.


The singer reflects on how the person initially found them beautiful before truly knowing them, but now that they have revealed their true self, they no longer see themselves as beautiful. It seems that the person had deceived the singer with their lies, and the singer is not as naive or easily fooled as the person might have thought. The lyrics express a sense of disappointment and betrayal, with the singer questioning the person's intentions and wondering what they expected from the relationship.


Moreover, the lyrics suggest that the person made the singer hope for a true friend and made them believe they were loved, but it turned out to be false. The singer laments the fact that true love seems to be scarce in modern times, reduced to a disposable commodity. They question whether their own feelings for the person matter and whether the person's current partner truly loves them. The singer compares their toxicity to the person's, emphasizing their own flaws but also questioning who is truly toxic in the situation.


In the latter part of the song, the lyrics convey a mixture of love and resentment towards the person. The singer states that they still love the person despite the hate they feel, and their anger is rooted in the fact that they miss them. They express a desire for the person to not be indifferent and acknowledge their feelings. The lyrics also touch on the singer's dreams of finding their place in the world but realizing that success may always elude them, perhaps due to the influence of this complicated relationship.


Overall, "About You" explores themes of deception, disillusionment, and the complexities of love and relationships.

Hi Steve, Thank you so much for your videos :)
I started my lists a little while ago.
My Grateful List and my Ask God List.
I have 21 things on my Ask God List, Trying to get to 300.
I have noticed that within just a few weeks I have already been able to tick off some things that I have asked for.
God is already blessing me :)
I'm so happy and grateful that I have been able to watch your videos.
Attitude of gratitude really works.
God bless you
Steve πŸ˜‡β€

NO MATTER WHERE UR FROM
WHERE U BEEN

WE MUST TAKE A STAND 4 OUR COMMUNITIES

πŸ“’ BUT THE MOST SCARIEST PART
OF IT ALL.....
"IS"
That At Some Point
In Time
We Have All Had To Face
Trusting Ourselves ...
"Why "
Because The Thief Comes Only To Steal ,Kill & Destroy
(Maybe I just lost a few ppl there)
So let me explaining plz
Satan is always awake seeking whose life he can destroy & who is willing to work for him ...
So many of us have at some point in our lives allowed Satan to take & have fully control of our emotions , thoughts & actions .
So by doing so
We then miss out & take away from ourselves / families
by allowing him full access to our lives ..
We have not only hurt ourselves as well
as others in one way or another ...
And by doing so distraction sets in & were no longer focus on us ...But of the world which is wicked
"SO"
Taking That Stand Against ur Emotions And thoughts make u even more stronger
Than u was b4 standing against ur own self ...

#POWER"
Is A part Of Being Strong
We Must Have The Power And The Ability
Within ourselves
To B Able
To Accomplish
Our Fears
Our Doubts
Our Beliefs
AND MOST
IMPORTANTLY
OUR EMOTIONS
THAT FULLY CONTROLS OUR THOUGHTS
BECAUSE A LOT OF US LIVE OFF OF OUR EMOTIONS
AND I Know
STANDING AGAINST THEM IS ALWAYS CHALLENGING
BUT ONCE U CAN GRAB HOLD TO THEM AND HAVE FULL CONTROL OF THEM
UR ABLE AND WILLING TO RUN THE RACE OF UR LIFE...
# πŸ”΄ DON'T ALLOW SATAN TO TAKE FROM U WHAT'S URS !!! To All My Strong & Beautiful Ppl
I Believe In U & I know
U Can Do It
So Get To Writing , Planning & Winning The Race
"300 " IS THE GOALβœŒπŸ’—πŸ˜€
