Lyrics
You, you, you
Repetition emphasizes the focus on 'you'
You, you, you
Continued emphasis on 'you'
You, you, you
Further reinforcement of the focus on 'you'
When I open up the door
Metaphorically refers to a moment of decision or opportunity
It led me back to you
Opening a door led the speaker back to 'you', possibly a person or a significant place/feeling
I've been looking for answers something more
Expressing a search for deeper meaning or understanding
Holding the past in my hands
Holding onto memories or experiences from the past
Now I'm fighting for someone I've ignored
Acknowledging neglect or overlooking someone important
To find you I am
Determined to find or reconnect with 'you'
And I've been taking all time
Investing considerable time in self-discovery or introspection
I need to get back to me
Desire to rediscover one's true self
And missing all the ways that you and I used to be
Missing the past connection and dynamics between 'you' and the speaker
Now I'm putting the fire to the floor
Metaphor for intensifying efforts or actions
Cause I've been busy I've been chasing waterfalls
Being preoccupied with pursuing unattainable goals
I've stopped believing in some kind of miracle
Losing faith in the possibility of something extraordinary happening
And I've been staring at the sun for too damn long
Feeling overwhelmed or exhausted by a prolonged pursuit of something
But when I opened up the door
Reiterating that the door opened a path back to 'you'
It led me back to you
Repeated emphasis on the door leading back to 'you'
When I opened up the door
-It led me back to you
-When I opened up the door
-It led me back to you
-I've been fighting a war I cannot win
Struggling with an unwinnable situation or conflict
Walking the world all alone
Feeling isolated and navigating life independently
And I finally finding what's within
Discovering one's inner self or true nature
Now that I know
Realizing a newfound understanding or awareness
I will be taking every second
Valuing every moment to reconnect with oneself
Just to get back to me
Missing the past relationship dynamics between 'you' and the speaker
And missing all the ways that you and I used to be
Similar to line 12, reminiscing about past connections
Now I'm putting the fire to the floor
Expressing a strong determination or urgency
Cause I've been busy I've been chasing waterfalls
Metaphor for chasing unattainable or unrealistic desires
I've stopped believing in some kind of miracle
Losing faith in the possibility of miracles or extraordinary occurrences
And I've been staring at the sun for too damn long
Feeling the negative effects of focusing on something too long
but when I opened up the door
Reiterating the door leading back to 'you'
It led me back to you
Emphasizing the return to 'you' through the door
You, you, you
Repetition emphasizing 'you'
You, you, you
-You, you, you
-When I opened up the door
Repeated emphasis on the door leading back to 'you'
It led me back to you
-Busy I've been chasing waterfalls
-I've stopped believing in some kind of miracle
-And I've been staring at the sun for too damn long
-But when I opened up the door
-It led me back to
-You, you, you
Continued repetition emphasizing 'you'
You, you, you
-You, you, you
-When I opened up the door
-It led me back to you
-You, you, you
-You, you, you
-You, you, you
-When I opened up the door
-It led me back to you
Reiterating the door leading back to 'you'
