Lyrics

Well, I wouldn't want to tell who's wrong and right,

Uncertain about assigning blame or determining right from wrong.

but all these shake-up-words won't make a rhyme.

Communication issues, as words fail to create harmony.

Half of what you say is never going to happen anyway

Doubtful about the likelihood of half of what is said actually occurring.

and the other half is not going to make me stay.

The other half of the communication won't persuade to stay.

Now go ahead and write your story on the walls,

Encouraging the act of expressing oneself but cautioning against permanence.

may they never ever leave the house.

Suggesting the importance of home and stability.

We're in the belly of a whale, the news are changing everyday,

Metaphorically inside a challenging situation, where news changes but fundamental issues persist.

but the temperature will be the same.

Despite external changes, internal conditions remain constant.


So keep your voices low, keep your heartbeats slow and I walk away.

Advocating for calmness and detachment in the face of challenges.

Keep your voices low, keep your heartbeats slow and I walk away.

Reiteration of the need for composure and distancing from the situation.


So I take my vitamins everyday,

Prioritizing self-care with the symbolism of vitamins for physical well-being.

cause I want healthy skin and heavy hair.

Expressing a desire for both physical health and a robust appearance.

Now go ahead and make your jokes about my honesty, but when we talk

Acknowledging potential criticism of honesty and vulnerability.

the mask will come off and you won't be happy to hear what you got to say.

Revealing true feelings when the mask is removed, potentially leading to discomfort.

Cause there's a part in you that wants the simple things

Recognizing internal conflicts between a desire for simplicity and more complex aspirations.

and there's a part that wants to marry and have kids

Expressing conflicting desires for marriage and family.

and there's a part that wants so badly to be part of everyone

Yearning to be a part of a community but considering distancing from it.

just to quit them all.

Contemplating the desire to leave all social connections.


So keep your voices low, keep your heartbeats slow and I walk away.

Reiterating the importance of maintaining composure and distance.

Keep your voices low, keep your heartbeats slow and I walk away.

Emphasizing the need to walk away from tumultuous situations.
