that's on you
Unraveling Shadows: Decoding Ruby Joyce's 'That's On You'
Lyrics
He'll keep you up at night
He causes you to stay awake during the night.
Throw sanity aside
Abandon rationality or sound judgment.
When he suddenly goes cold on you
When he unexpectedly becomes distant or indifferent towards you.
And he'll make you think it might be you
He will make you question if the issue lies with you.
Now that's on you
Responsibility for the situation is placed on you.
That's on you
Reiterates that the consequences are your responsibility.
Now that's on you
Emphasizes the attribution of responsibility to you.
That's on you
Repeats the idea that the situation is your responsibility.
He'll tie the silk over your eyes
He will blindfold you with deceptive sweetness or promises.
Make you feel like you've been changing more than you'd like
He will make you believe you are undergoing undesirable changes.
Kept under lock and key
Kept under control and restricted.
In too soon, in too deep
Too involved or committed too quickly.
I might as well have let you in my room
Regret for allowing someone into your private space.
Didn't know I asked to be in your shoes
Unaware that you didn't request to be in the other person's difficult position.
You became a fortune teller
The person becomes adept at predicting the future, perhaps foreseeing trouble.
When you put your pen to paper
Being insightful or prophetic when expressing oneself in writing.
Now that's on you
Reiterates that the consequences are your responsibility.
That's on you
Reaffirms that the burden falls on you.
Now that's on you
Emphasizes the responsibility lying with you.
That's on you
Repeats the assertion that the situation is your responsibility.
You, you, you
Directly refers to the person being responsible.
On you, you, you
Further emphasizes the responsibility resting on the person.
