Basically this song is in the position of any person who is in an abusive relationship. Since most abusive relationships may start at a young age, even the opposition may not understand how they can be hurting the person they care for. It's called "It's Up To You" because essentially it is up to that person to change for the better and learn from their mistakes and move on with it. It can also point back at the person who is being abused to think about the fact that they don't have to let their boyfriend or girlfriend treat them that way. They can stick up for themselves and stand their ground. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Lyrics by: Jennifer Chung

No, it's not okay when you look at me that way.
Where's your sense of judgment?
No. I'm entitled to say what I think is right from wrong.
Deep inside I knew it all along that

You don't want what's best for us.
Your problem is your lack of trust.
I know this time the fault is not mine.
You just crossed the line.

No, I don't think that I'm making a mistake,
Just because I don't want to have it your way.
And you say that you'll leave if I refuse to comply.
Then I know for sure that I will survive.

No. It's never okay for me to feel unsafe.
Where's the love you promised?
No. I'm delighted to say
even without you I am strong.
Maybe you and I just don't belong.

At first things were great and nice.
But I wasn't aware of its impossible price.

You don't want what's best for us.
The problem is your lack of trust.
I know this time the fault is not mine.
You just crossed the line.

No, I don't think that I'm making a mistake.
Just because I will not have it your way.
And you say that you'll leave if I refuse to comply.
Then I know for sure that I will survive.

So it's up to you if it's our goodbye.
