Back To Life (However Do You Want Me)

The lyrics describe someone asking for clarity in a relationship. At first, the speaker sounds willing to adapt and be available, asking what the other person wants and needs. Gradually, the repeated return to “life” and “reality” suggests a wish to stop drifting in uncertainty. By the end, the speaker asks the other person to decide, so they can understand where they stand.

“Back to life” and “back to the present time” may mean facing the real situation rather than staying in a fantasy or avoiding a difficult choice. “Take the initiative” means act first or make a decision, while “I’ll leave it in your hands” shows the speaker is giving the other person control for now. The line about needing a “positive change” hints that the current situation feels troubled or stuck.

There is some tension in the speaker’s position: “however do you want me” sounds accepting and flexible, but “make up your mind” sets a limit. The repeated questions can feel like devotion, frustration, or both. The lyrics do not say exactly what the relationship is or what choice is needed, so the uncertainty itself seems central: the speaker wants connection, but also needs honesty and direction.
