Just Us Lyrics
I can't stand being the cause of the tears on your cheek
There's a lump in my throat, and it won't let me speak
You've been asking to talk
I've been putting it off
Guess I'm scared of letting you in on the lies that I keep
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know the life I've been chasing
Is a waste of time
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna say it
But I've been out of control
And I'm ready to face it
Baby, once and for all
I'm so tired of running
I'm sick of letting you down
It's been a lonely road, but it's all over now (It's all over now)
It's just us from here on out
[Verse 2]
And I hear people talk about love just for something to say
And in this modern world it can live and then die in a day
It's a shock to the heart
We get lost in the dark, but
Unconditional love is a light that never fades
And I know the life I've been chasing
Is a waste of time
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna say it
But I've been out of control
And I'm ready to face it
Baby, once and for all
I'm so tired of running
I'm sick of letting you down
It's been a lonely road, but it's all over now
It's just us from here on—
[Bridge]
'Cause you know that I know it's always been you
Always you
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna say it
But I've been out of control
And I'm ready to face it
Baby, once and for all
I'm so tired of running (Running)
I'm sick of letting you down (Letting you down)
It's been a lonely road, but it's all over now (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
It's just us from here on out, woah-oh
It's just us from here on out
Mm, from here on out
Mm-mm
About
Q&A
Find answers to frequently asked questions about the song and explore its deeper meaning
“Just Us” is a song in which i confess to running away from what really matters and getting lost in the pursuit of validation from external things. It’s about chasing a hedonistic, hollow life. Realising the true meaning of life which is of course about true love, loving ourselves, our families and our communities and being there for them.

I’ve been on a journey of looking for things outside of myself and not addressing what’s going on, not appreciating what’s going on around me, being desensitised. Having a child really changed my perspective on life. I never really had an anchor, and having [my daughter] was inspiring. It made me think about how really none of the things I’ve been doing up until this point matter.
