Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I won't bear anymore
Because of the letter that you gave me before
Now I won't gnaw on my underlip
You want me to tell not to think

Well I won't forget anymore
Because of the letter that you gave me before
And I try not to doubt your words
I know it would mean that I'm despising you

Well I don't miss you as much as before
Because of the letter that you gave me before
And I hope now I understand
What your words meant that you racked your brain for

So I finally got here
Where I had never believed that there was
I don't need disasters anymore
Just to convince me of the foolishness in my life

Is this called the "happiness"?
It cost us a lot and something's been missed




Is this what people had always said?
Can you feel this happiness?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Texas Pandaa's song "People" express a sense of liberation from the weight of the past, specifically through a letter that was given before. The singer declares that they will no longer "bear" or "gnaw" at their emotions and will not "miss...as much as before." This suggests a feeling of disconnect and distance from the person who wrote the letter. They mention trying not to doubt the words of the letter, but then comment that to do so would be to "despise" the writer.


Throughout the song, there is a recognition of a new state of being - a place where the singer had never believed they could be. This state seems to be one of happiness, or at least a questioning of what happiness truly means. The final lines ask, "Is this what people had always said? Can you feel this happiness?" This implies that the concept of happiness is something that people talk about, but its actual meaning or existence is elusive.


Overall, the lyrics suggest a matured sense of self-reflection and letting go of past hurt. The writer acknowledges that disasters of the past have convinced them of the "foolishness" in their life and that they are ready to move on to a new place.
