Lyrics

Showing you never want cover

Expressing openness, not hiding

What you hold honey you hold well

Praising the ability to hold things well

Holding it out won't be tougher

Suggesting that holding out won't be difficult

And I know honey I know well

Acknowledging understanding or knowledge

The thought is fulfilling your label

The idea is satisfying a certain expectation or role

And talking honey talking on

Engaging in conversation

It's fake though I know that you're able

Acknowledging a known falsehood

Just sleeping honey, I'm sleeping well

Indicating peaceful sleep


Older, we want, closure you're holding on top

Desire for closure or resolution as one ages

When your life is on hold

Life is paused or at a standstill

Be there, I don't

Expressing a desire to be present

I don't want to leave you alone

Not wanting to abandon someone

I'm talking my mind, 'cause I'm done

Speaking one's thoughts, indicating resolution

Enough

Emphasizing having had enough


Calling the exchanged words

Referring to exchanged words

What you hold honey you hold well

Reiterating the praise for holding things well

The past is a world of retained hurt

Highlighting a past full of enduring pain

And I know honey I know well

Reaffirming knowledge or understanding

Wonder the reason you changed for

Pondering the reason for a change

And talking honey talking on

Engaging in conversation again

Time will escape you can be sure

Expressing certainty that time will pass

Just sleeping honey, I'm sleeping well

Indicating peaceful sleep once more


Older, we want, closure your holding on top

Repetition of the desire for closure with age

When your life is on hold

Reiterating the feeling of life being on hold

Be there, I don't

Expressing the desire to be present again

I don't want to leave you alone

Repeating the reluctance to leave someone alone

I'm talking my mind, because I'm done

Reiterating speaking one's mind with finality

Enough

Emphasizing having had enough once more
