The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Everyone but You" by the artist "Young Veins, The"

In the song "Everyone but You" by The Young Veins, the lyrical hero experiences unrequited love and longing for his beloved, who, apparently, is in a relationship ("A wedding ring is just a thing that burdens you").

The hero feels lonely ("A part of you left the room. And I was left talking to Apple") and seeks solace in dreams ("She comes to me in my sleep"). Sleep becomes for him the only place to meet his beloved, for whom he is ready to give up reality ("I'm tired of counting sheep to see her, I sleep because I need her").

The phrase "And everyone knows it but you" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the tragedy of the situation: everyone around understands the hero's feelings, sees his suffering, but not the object of his love. This line is filled with bitterness and despair, because the beloved does not notice or does not want to notice his true feelings.

The image of the wedding ring as a "thing" that "burdens" and "occupies your finger" suggests that the hero does not believe in the sincerity of his chosen one's feelings in her current relationship. He believes in true love ("love is the only thing I'm really looking for") and hopes that one day his beloved will realize that her happiness is with him.

The repetition of the last stanza and the final lines "Everyone but you knows, everyone but you" reinforce the feeling of hopelessness and tragedy.

A part of you left the room.

I am left talking to the apple.

She comes to me when I dream.

I'm tired of counting sheep to see her,

I sleep because I need her

And everybody knows it but you.

A wedding ring is just a thing

That weighs you down

And occupies your finger

I know it sounds a little down,

But love is all I'm really after.

She comes to me when I dream

I'm tired of counting sheep to see her,

I sleep because I need her

And everybody knows it but you,

But you

And everybody knows it but you.

I hope you're all listening,

I'm pouring out my heart for paper.

A part of me still believes

That love is all I'm really after

She comes to me when I dream

I'm tired of counting sheep to see her,

I sleep because I need her

And everybody knows it but you,

But you

Everybody knows it but you

Everyone but you knows,

Everyone but you.
