Your Talk
Living Up to the Silence: Unveiling the True Meaning
Lyrics
I, I always try, try to be honest
Expressing a commitment to honesty and sincerity in communication.
And really say what I mean
Stating the intention to convey genuine thoughts and feelings.
I rather say less than don't keep a promise
Preferring to speak less rather than making unfulfilled promises.
Try to keep my slate clean
Striving to maintain a clean and trustworthy reputation.
Some white lie once in a while, but I'd say that's about it
Admitting occasional white lies but suggesting limited deception.
Sometimes I wonder why that's so hard for you
Expressing confusion about the difficulty of honesty for someone else.
Words roll out your mouth, but there's nothing behind
Highlighting a lack of substance or sincerity in the other person's words.
One act you're putting on
Noting a performative aspect or insincerity in the other person's actions.
Line after line, so easy and wrong
Criticizing the ease with which the other person delivers false statements.
Time to live up to your talk
Emphasizing the need for the person to match their words with actions.
It's time to live up to your talk
Reiterating the importance of living up to one's spoken commitments.
I'm, I'm growing tired to be disappointed
Expressing weariness and disappointment with unfulfilled promises.
How I wish I could trust
Expressing a desire for trust and reliability in the other person.
Your words I desire, all I ever want is
Seeking reassurance and the fulfillment of personal aspirations.
My dreams won't get crushed
Expressing a fear of dreams being shattered by untruthful actions.
Why can't you open up to me, believe me I can take it
Encouraging the other person to be open and truthful for the sake of trust.
Or am I not worth to be told the truth
Questioning one's worthiness of receiving the truth from the other person.
Words roll out your mouth, but there's nothing behind
Reiterating the lack of substance or truth behind the other person's words.
One act you're putting on
Noting a performative aspect or insincerity in the other person's actions.
Line after line, so easy and wrong
Highlighting the ease with which false statements are made by the other person.
What you say you'd do you've never done
Observing a pattern of unfulfilled commitments and promises.
Oh I don't know why I still listen
Expressing confusion about why the speaker continues to listen despite disappointment.
It's time to live up to your talk
Reiterating the importance of the other person living up to their promises.
It's time to live up to your talk It's time to live up to it now
Strongly emphasizing the immediate need for the other person to fulfill their commitments.
(Start hearing me out...stop letting me down...when do you start to hear me)
Calling for attention and a plea for the other person to understand and stop causing disappointment.
Oh I don't know why I still listen
Expressing continued confusion about the speaker's willingness to listen despite disappointment.
It's time to live up to your talk
Reiterating the urgency for the other person to live up to their spoken commitments.
It's time to live up to it
Emphasizing the immediate need for the other person to fulfill their commitments.
It's time to live up to your talk
Repeating the call for the other person to match their words with actions.
It's time to live up to it
Stressing the importance of living up to spoken commitments and promises.
Time to live up to it
Reiterating the urgency and importance of living up to commitments.
Time to live up to it
Emphasizing the immediate and pressing need to fulfill spoken commitments.
