The lyrics describe this person as a "blue-eyed sister mercy" and a "beautiful queen of the night" who initially makes the narrator feel like a stranger, but then holds them tightly. The narrator is controlled by this person, trapped under their "law," but realizes that there is no guarantee in this relationship. The person constantly turns their back on the narrator and behaves as though they are a stranger, causing trouble in their lives. The lyrics also depict this person as a hunter, always "hunting like a thief in the night" and searching for what they desire. They are willing to take whatever they want, even resorting to stealing. However, the song suggests that their actions will eventually catch up to them. The narrator acknowledges that it will take time for this person to face the consequences of their actions. Time is all they need to see the reality of their life and the lies they live. The person pretends to be someone they are not, and if they cannot obtain what they desire, they resort to stealing. The lyrics emphasize that this person will eventually pay for their deceitful behavior. The narrator mentions a "rhyme" and how they will pay for what they have done. It is implied that karma will catch up to them, as everything from good to evil will come back to them. The song suggests that this person has no clear direction in life. They have been playing games for too long and using and abusing others. The narrator encourages them to open their eyes and see the reality of their actions. Overall, "Back To You" is a song that exposes the manipulative and deceitful nature of a person in a relationship. It portrays the eventual consequences one has to face when leading a life based on lies and betrayal.
