If You’re Serious Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is your life
When I will try to read your mind
But the way your hand fits into mine
I won't second guess its a sign

[Chorus]
And if you’re serious
Then I’ll give you the illusion of feeling love
I'll change your point of view 'til you feel enough
You just gotta choose if you’re serious

[Verse 2]
Give it some time
And I’ll try to remember my lines
Watch the way your plans turn into mine
To match the photo that's stuck in my mind

[Chorus]
And if you’re serious
Then I’ll give you the illusion of feeling love
I'll change your point of view 'til you feel enough
You just gotta choose if you’re serious

[Drop]
(And if you’re sеrious)
(And if you’re serious)
You just gotta choose if you’rе serious
[Bridge]
If this is your life
Then all that matters lives in your mind
And the truth is up for you to define
I hope that you choose to be mine

[Chorus]
And if you’re serious
Then I’ll give you the illusion of feeling love
I'll change your point of view 'til you feel enough
You just gotta choose if you’re serious
You just gotta choose if you’re serious
You just gotta choose if you’re serious

[Drop]
(And if you’re serious)
(And if you’re serious)
You just gotta choose if you’re serious
(And if you’re serious)
(And if you’re serious)
You just gotta choose if you’re serious

Genius Annotation

“If You’re Serious” is the eighth track from The Chainsmokers' fourth studio album, So Far So Good. Taking elements of the synthpop and alternative dance music genres, “If You’re Serious” gives a nostalgic atmosphere that is reminiscent of mid 1980’s or late 2000s/early 2010s dance music. This track is one of the only two songs of the album to only be written by Alex and Andrew themselves, the other song being “iPad”, which was released on March 11th, 2022.

With the lyrics, the song discusses the topic relating to the fear of intimacy, a subconsciousness fear in which a person is too scared to be vulnerable to their significant other due to possible negative events that could go wrong in future relationships, such as abandonment and judgement.
