Lyrics

Oh brother, I can't, I can't get through

Expressing difficulty or inability to communicate with a brother.

I've been trying hard to reach you 'cause I don' know what to do

Attempting to reach out for guidance or support because of uncertainty.

Oh brother, I can't believe it's true

Expressing disbelief about a situation or circumstance.

I'm so scared about the future, and I wanna talk to you

Feeling fear and concern about what lies ahead, expressing a need for conversation.

Oh, I wanna talk to you

Reiterating the desire to communicate and share thoughts or feelings.


You can take a picture of something you see

Suggesting the act of capturing a moment or an image for reflection.

In the future where will I be?

Raising a question about the future and one's place in it.

You can climb a ladder up to the sun

Presenting the idea of reaching for ambitious goals.

Or a write a song nobody has sung

Encouraging creativity, either through art or original expression.

Or do something that's never been done

Promoting the pursuit of unprecedented achievements.


Are you lost or incomplete?

Questioning one's sense of self or purpose.

Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece?

Describing a feeling of being incomplete or facing challenges in understanding oneself.

Tell me, how do you feel?

Asking about emotional states and seeking an honest response.

Well, I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak

Expressing a sense of alienation or disconnect due to a language barrier.

And they're talking it to me

Feeling that others are communicating with the speaker in an incomprehensible manner.


So you take a picture of something you see

Repeating the idea of capturing moments for reflection on the future.

In the future where will I be?

Reiterating the uncertainty about one's future and seeking direction.

You can climb a ladder up to the sun

Continuing the theme of aspiring to reach ambitious heights.

Or write a song nobody has sung

Encouraging the creation of something unique and unheard of.

Or do something that's never been done

Promoting the idea of breaking new ground and doing unprecedented things.

Or do something that's never been done

Repeating the call for originality and innovation.


So you don't know where you're going and you wanna talk

Expressing uncertainty about one's path and a desire for conversation.

And you feel like you're going where you've been before

Feeling stuck in a repetitive or familiar situation, seeking dialogue.

You tell anyone who'll listen, but you feel ignored

Sharing the experience of attempting to communicate but feeling overlooked.

Nothing's really making any sense at all, let's talk

Describing a sense of confusion and the need for meaningful discussion.

Let's talk, let's talk, let's talk

Repeating the call for conversation, emphasizing the importance of talking.
