Lyrics
Doesn't take a lot to know my days are numbered
Expressing awareness that time is running out or limited for something significant.
Can you draw a map to where you disappear
Asking if the person can provide guidance or direction to where they emotionally or physically vanish.
Like a pill lost in your cabinet I've expired
Comparing oneself to an expired pill, suggesting a sense of being neglected or overlooked.
Doesn't take a lot to know but I don't want to hear
Acknowledging understanding of a situation but expressing a reluctance to confront or discuss it.
Until you say it out loud it doesn't really count
Highlighting the importance of verbalizing thoughts for them to be considered valid.
So I shut your mouth
Taking action to prevent the expression of certain thoughts or feelings by asking someone to be quiet.
Take up the space somehow
Filling the void or empty space left by silence.
Let my body talk
Encouraging the body to communicate and convey emotions or messages.
'Cause it's got a lot to say now
Emphasizing the significance of the body's communication, implying there's much to express.
Until you say it out loud it doesn't really count
Reiterating the idea that unspoken thoughts hold less weight.
Take up every sound
Occupying every available auditory space to suppress the unsaid.
Won't let you spit it out
Refusing to allow the disclosure of certain information or feelings.
Let my body talk
Encouraging the body to be the primary mode of expression when words are stifled.
Choking every word from your mouth
Describing a situation where spoken words are hindered or choked.
I've become a master of distraction
Claiming proficiency in diverting attention from important matters.
Using every skill I've learned to silence truth
Utilizing learned skills to suppress or hide the truth.
Your impending loss leads to some shady actions
Suggesting questionable actions in response to the anticipation of losing someone.
But I'll do anything it takes
Expressing a commitment to go to any extent to avoid losing the person.
I'm not losing you
Reaffirming the determination not to let go of the person.
So don't say you wanna talk
Discouraging verbal communication or discussion.
Don't say you wanna talk
Repeating the discouragement of expressing a desire to talk.
Don't say it
Emphasizing the prohibition of expressing the intention to talk.
Don't let the ball drop
Advising against letting an opportunity for communication slip away.
