In Tongues
Unveiling Hidden Stories: In Tongues by Good Company
Lyrics
You caught me
You discovered something about me
Speaking in tongues
I am expressing myself in a mysterious or incomprehensible way
That you don't understand
You lack understanding of what I'm saying
Say it to my face I
Challenge me directly; I want to know you intimately
Need to know you the way
I want to understand you as well as I know the back of my hand
I do the back of my hand
Expressing familiarity and knowledge
Cause' I
Introducing a new thought or aspect
Met you on a Tuesday
Recalling a specific day of the week
Killed you on a Wednesday
Using strong language to emphasize an action
Found some peace of mind then fell
Attaining a sense of peace but then falling into sickness or deception
Ill to an illusion
Being misled by a false appearance
Jumping to conclusions
Quickly jumping to conclusions without sufficient evidence
Every single time
Repeating a pattern of behavior
Maybe you'd find
Suggesting a possibility
Everything you'd like
Finding satisfaction or fulfillment
If you turned around
Encouraging a positive action
And smiled for the camera
Posing for a photograph with a smile
Never think twice
Urging not to hesitate or overthink
That could be your vice
Warning that hesitation can be a weakness
On the long walk home past the cinema
Describing a specific location on a journey
Maybe you'd find everything you'd like
If you turned around
Reiteration of the idea of finding satisfaction
And smiled for the camera
Repeating the concept of smiling for a photo
Never think twice
That could be your vice
-On the long walk
Continuation of the journey metaphor
Home past the cinema
Coming down with a bad case
Experiencing a negative condition
My brain cells falling like dominos
Metaphorically describing a decline in cognitive function
Go and speak your mind babe but
Encouraging open expression of thoughts
That's something
Highlighting that there are things better left unknown
That you don't wanna know
Emphasizing a hidden or undesirable truth
Cause' I'm so unmotivated
Expressing a lack of motivation
Mr. Uneducated
Claiming a lack of education
I'll make my jokes
Using humor to cope with difficulties
But don't live on your mattress
Advising not to dwell on negative thoughts
Ruin the magic
Warning against destroying something special
You might just choke
Suggesting a potential negative consequence
Maybe you'd find everything you'd like
If you turned around
-And smiled for the camera
-Never think twice
-That could be your vice
-On the long walk
-Home past the cinema
-Maybe you'd find everything you'd like
-If you turned around
-And smiled for the camera
-Never think twice
-That could be your vice
-On the long walk home past the cinema
