The Rumour
Unveiling the Undercurrents: The Rumour's Hidden Depths
Lyrics
Well I am the cancer running through your veins
Metaphorical reference to being a destructive force within someone's life.
I am the sweat dripping down the side of your face
Symbolizing the discomfort and stress caused, likely by the speaker.
I am the pain in the back of your legs, it makes you fall to you knees it makes you believe
Describing the impact of the pain and its influence on actions and beliefs.
And I am the headline, that's going to make front page news
Being a significant and attention-grabbing event or person.
I am that fashion you're all into.
Representing a trend or style that people are currently interested in.
We had to try something different
Expressing the necessity of experimentation or change.
We had to do something new
Highlighting the need for innovation and a departure from the norm.
We had to make some heads turn
Creating a reaction or drawing attention from others.
We had to put this to you
Presenting a message or idea to the audience.
I am the rumour on everyone's lips
Being the subject of gossip or speculation among people.
I am the curse on your girlfriends hips.
Referring to a negative influence on a romantic relationship.
We are the different so we'll make a start
Embracing uniqueness and signaling a new beginning.
Tell all your friends, oh sound the alarm.
Encouraging the spreading of information or awareness.
I am that feeling, that you've done something wrong.
Conveying guilt or remorse for an action perceived as wrong.
I am that friend, who knew all along.
Being aware of a friend's wrongdoing but not intervening.
We say we have our best friends yet we stab them in the back.
Highlighting the hypocrisy of claiming best friends while betraying them.
We try to show some love and, it's a skill that we lack.
Pointing out the difficulty in expressing genuine love or care.
I've had it with this crowd and I am done with this town.
Expressing frustration and a desire to distance oneself from a group of people.
I've had enough of these shows, it's over with you now.
Declaring the end of involvement with a particular person or situation.
Hold your hands in, into the air
Encouraging a symbolic gesture of surrender or openness.
Hold your hands up as if you care
Asking for a display of caring or concern.
Oh hold on
Expressing hesitation or a pause in the narrative.

Inserting a name, possibly to draw attention or emphasize a point.
Behind your back they talk about you all the time
Revealing the prevalence of negative talk and gossip about someone.
Behind your back they spread some shit and some lies
Indicating the spread of false information and rumors behind a person's back.
