“It” is a simple song that takes on philosophically complex subject matter; namely, the philosophy of perception and reality.
The verses of “It” create tension by pairing disparate, opposing, and often conflicting images in a series of simple couplets.
The chorus of the song is even simpler than t...
[Verse 1]
It's dark, it's light
It's today and it's tonight
It's big and it's small
It's the one and it's the all
It's the mountain
It's in the breeze
It's the lock and it's the keys
It's me and it's you
And it's the things that we didn't do
[Chorus]
It's all in how you look at it
[Verse 2]
It's alive and it's dead
It's the water, it's the riverbed
And it's love and it's fear
It's all the things that didn't get you here
And it's curse and it's praise
And it's a future full of yesterdays
It's the silence in a song
It's the sound of your voice when you sing along
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
It's the fire, it's the ice
It's a personal hell, it's a paradise
And it's joy and it's pain
It made the desert, it made the rain
It's the hunt and it's the prey
It's coming closer as it goes away
It's real and it's a lie
It's the answer and the question when you wonder why
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
It's no good, it's all right
It's the kiss and it's the fight
It's in the image, it's the eye
Sticking with you as it passes by
And it's the bottom
And it's the sky
And it's alarming, it's a lullaby
And it's cruel and it's kind
It's really nothing
It's in your mind
[Chorus][x5]
