Lyrics
If you wanna let it out
If you want to express your feelings
Since you stopped playing around with the doubt
Since you stopped being uncertain or indecisive
That everything you want is what you're getting out of me
Believing that you're receiving everything you desire from me
You can come clean while we walk down all the wrong streets
You can be honest as we navigate through challenging situations
No one ever wants to get through to you
No one wants to communicate effectively with you
I think you're getting tired of me too
Suggesting that the person may be losing interest in the speaker
And you don't like it when I speak in metaphors
Expressing dislike for metaphorical language
I've done it before but you didn't tell me until now
Admitting to using metaphors in the past, but the listener only reveals it now
You tell me now?
Questioning why the listener is revealing this information now
What good does it do me?
Rhetorical question about the usefulness of the situation
I can't seem to get in the mood
Expressing difficulty in getting into a positive mindset
And up until now it's all been a preview
Everything experienced until now has been a glimpse or preview
Of what's about to come and how you should just get on with it
Suggesting it's time to move forward and not dwell on the past
'Cause hanging out's just overkill
Hanging out is excessive; implying a need for more meaningful actions
Talking's like standing still
Emphasizing that talking without progress is like standing still
No one ever wants to get through to you
Similar to line 6, indicating a reluctance to communicate effectively
I think you're getting tired of me too
Reiteration of the listener possibly losing interest in the speaker
And you don't like it when I speak in metaphors
Repeating dislike for metaphorical language
I've done it before but you didn't tell me until now
Reiterating past use of metaphors and the delayed revelation by the listener
You tell me now?
Questioning again why the listener is revealing this information now
What good does it do me?
Rhetorical question about the usefulness of the situation (similar to line 11)
