Tell Me About You
Unveiling the Veiled: Personal Discovery in 'Tell Me About You'
Lyrics
Look inside
Encouragement to introspect or examine oneself
All the days have been running through
Reflecting on the passage of time and experiences
And the nights
Reference to the passing nights
Swiftly fade away
Indicating the swift disappearance of time
And no
Expressing inability to connect or reach someone
I can't get through you
Continued difficulty in reaching or understanding someone
I know you're hiding
Acknowledging that someone is concealing something
Since the day we met
Implying that the person has been hiding since their meeting
For all the nice things that we could share
Hope or desire to share positive experiences
Come up and show me your way
Requesting the person to reveal their true self
Come tell me about the way you lose yourself and get wild
Invitation to share experiences of losing control and being carefree
I'll tell you how I couldn't do
Offering to share personal experiences of inability or failure
Come show me all the bits inside that lie in your mind
Asking to reveal inner thoughts or emotions
I'll show you all my faces too
Willingness to show different aspects or emotions
Come tell me about you
Reiterating the request to share one's true self
Fallen nights, scream of fate and mess
Describing chaotic or troubling nights and their impact
We realise that they couldn't stay
Realization that certain experiences or relationships can't last
Just like we're falling away
Comparing the fading of experiences to drifting apart
Do you remember holding me beside you?
Recalling a past moment of physical closeness
In time, you found yourself, you had me too
Realization of mutual presence and involvement in the past
There's something about the way you tell me
Desire to know something special about the person
Oh that you're mine
Feeling of possession or attachment towards the person
There's one thing that you couldn't do
Hinting at something the person failed to do
Come tell me about you
Reiteration of the request to share one's true self
