Lyrics
Speak now, don't hold back
Encouragement to express thoughts immediately without hesitation.
You're not the only one who thinks their heart is black
Acknowledging that others also feel their emotions intensely.
Pour it out, don't be afraid
Urge to share emotions openly without fear.
What do I have to do to persuade
Questioning what needs to be done to convince the listener.
You that it's worth it
Trying to convey that life is valuable and worthwhile.
The sun is buried now but let's unearth it
Metaphorically suggesting bringing positivity back into life.
There's nothing you can say to make me run away
Assurance that nothing said will drive the speaker away.
So hold on, keep on, roll on, sleep on it
Encouragement to endure and persist through difficulties.
I know you're in pain but from where I sit
Acknowledging the listener's pain from the speaker's perspective.
There's nothing broken
Assertion that nothing is irreparably damaged.
Except the things you think should stay unspoken
Suggesting that some things are better left unsaid.
Secrets kill, I'm here until
Highlighting the potential harm of keeping secrets.
You're ready to be open
Commitment to support until the listener is ready to open up.
Do it now, don't hesitate
Emphasis on taking action promptly without delay.
It only gets harder if you wait
Warning that challenges become more difficult with time.
Take my hand I know you're scared
Offering a comforting hand despite fear.
You'll see it all gets better once you dare
Assurance that situations improve when one dares to face them.
To start talking
Encouraging open communication like the mentioned record.
Like that record said there's nothing shocking
Reference to the idea that nothing should be too surprising.
I'm not so naïve I know you don't believe
Awareness that the listener may be skeptical.
But hold on, keep on, roll on, sleep on it
Reiteration of encouragement to persevere through challenges.
I know you're in pain but from where I sit
Understanding and acknowledging the listener's pain.
There's nothing broken
Reasserting that nothing is irreparably damaged.
Except the things you think should stay unspoken
Reemphasizing the harm of keeping things unspoken.
Secrets kill, I'm here until
Commitment to support until the listener is ready to be open.
You're ready to be open
Expression of readiness for the listener to share their thoughts.
