“You” appears on The 1975’s Sex EP.
This song details Matty’s frustration with a lover for whom he’s had for one year. They both go out of their way to annoy the other and there is no enjoyment left in the relationship, but it’s an on going cycle of lust, jealousy and arguments that keep them toget...
[Part I: You]
[Verse 1]
And you're a liar
At least all of your friends are
And so am I
Just typically drowned in my car
It's my party
And I'll cry to the end
You must try harder
Than kissing all of my friends, you
[Chorus]
Yeah, it takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
It takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
[Verse 2]
And you're alive
At least as far as I can tell you are
And so am I
You beat me down and then we're back to my car
And it's so ironic
How it's only been a year
And it's not my fault
That I fucked everybody here
[Chorus]
Yeah, it takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
It takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
Yeah, it takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
It takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
[Bridge]
And I say, do you wanna dance? Do you wanna dance?
Do you wanna dance in the bar at the back of the hall?
And I say, do you wanna dance? Do you wanna dance?
Do you wanna dance, dance in the back of the hall?
[Chorus]
Yeah, it takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
It takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
It takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
It takes a bit more
Yeah, it takes a bit more than you
More, more, more
(Yeah, it takes a bit more)
(Yeah, it takes a bit more)
It takes a bit more
(Yeah, it takes a bit more)
(Yeah, it takes a bit more)
It takes a bit more
[Breakdown]
[Part II: Milk]
[Verse 1]
Straight lines, they unwind you
She does a little thing with her eyes that says, "We're off soon"
She says the bleeding's incidental 'cause she's so cool
She said, "I'm no fun if I've only a bottle of wine"
[Chorus]
And now she's doing it all the time
Yeah, she's doing it all the time
[Verse 2]
Slow down, yeah, I want you
She does a little bit on the sly that shows what she's up to
She started talking about missing him, she was glistening
It won't mend your heart if it's only a couple of lines
[Chorus]
And now she's doing it all the time
Yeah, she's doing it all the time
Yeah, she's doing it all the time
Yeah, she's doing it all the time
Yeah, she's doing it all the time
You was written by Nisha Sangar & George Daniel & Matty Healy.

Quoted directly from the song “And it’s so ironic,
How it’s only been a year”
This period of silence before the next song starts is to disguise the next song when listening on a CD or record player. This is often known as a hidden track. The hidden track in this case is Milk.
There is a very long instrumental part in the opening of the song, if that’s what you mean. It is both very beautiful on it’s own (not silent) and also serves as a very long build up so the first words of the song almost take the listener off guard.
You ends after just 4 minutes and 38 seconds.
Then, the track is completely silent until 7:36 when a second song begins to play. Eventually, after demands from fans, The 1975 released this secret track as a fully-fledged single – Milk.
