Biography; "Rizz & Matt brought clipped guitar riffs set to cinematic melodies and cut with crisp and supremely lyrical vocals. Their performance had a mature streak that is the hallmark of well-versed musicians. On stage VOWWS are demure and restrained, and their music is emotionally potent, a self-possessed and – dare I say – cherished insanity reminiscent of the late Cornell’s Black Hole Sun."

It's You
VOWWS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′m collecting moments I can live while you're away
Restraint, it′s not my middle name
But I'm subject to promises that I've already made
I′ll stray, but young hearts fly right over time
I′m yours, you're mine, good love is so hard to find
But I can pass on by when you look the other way
I'll stay ′cause young hearts can blend over time
I'm yours, you′re mine, good love is so hard to find
The song "It's You" by VOWWS is a reflective meditation on the complexities of human relationships. The lyrics themselves suggest a sense of conflict and paradox in the singer's attitude towards love and commitment.
The opening lines of the song, "Escape position and invade, I'm collecting moments I can live while you're away" illustrates a certain restlessness and fear of vulnerability. The hesitance to fully commit to a person is at odds with the desire to collect memories and cherish moments shared. This struggle is further highlighted in the lines, "Restraint, it's not my middle name, but I'm subject to promises that I've already made". The singer seems to both crave and fear commitment, feeling trapped by their own promises, yet unable to fully let go.
The chorus reflects the same sort of inner conflict. "It's you that makes me wanna stay, but I can pass on by when you look the other way," suggests that the singer feels both compelled and repelled by the idea of staying with this person. The line, "I'll stay ′cause young hearts can blend over time", emphasizes the idea of two people growing closer over time, but it is undercut by the ending refrain of "good love is so hard to find", which reinforces the struggle to find a love that feels authentic and fulfilling.
Overall, the lyrics of "It's You" paint a picture of a person wrestling with their own insecurities and fears of commitment, while simultaneously craving the connection and closeness that true love offers.
