Talk Too Much
Coin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Caffeine, small talk
Wait out the plastic weather
Mmhmm, uh uh, discussing current events
I'll take my time
I'm not the forward thinker
You read my mind
Better to leave it unsaid
Why can't I leave it unsaid?

You know I talk too much



Honey, come put your lips on mine and shut me up
We could blame it all on human nature
Stay cool, it's just a kiss
Oh, why you gotta be so talkative?
I talk too much, we talk too much

You know my type
Tightrope across the table
Mmhmm, uh huh
I can't keep holding my breath
New wave, no time
Red velvet under pressure
Blah blah, green eyes
I never leave it unsaid
Why can't I leave it unsaid?

You know I talk too much
Honey, come put your lips on mine and shut me up
We could blame it all on human nature
Stay cool, it's just a kiss
Oh, why you gotta be so talkative?
I talk too much, we talk too much

Silence is golden, and you've got my hopes up
We talk too much
No hesitation, what are we waiting for?
We talk too much

You know I talk too much (too much)
Honey, come put your lips on mine
And shut me up (shut me up)
We could blame it all on human nature
Stay cool, it's just a kiss
Oh, why you gotta be so talkative?
I talk too much, we talk too much

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of COIN's song "Talk Too Much" speak to the singer's inability to stop talking and their desire for their partner to physically intervene in order to quiet their constant chatter. Through the use of caffeine and small talk, the singer avoids discussing any deeper or more meaningful topics, instead choosing to fill the silence with meaningless chatter about current events. The line "You read my mind, better to leave it unsaid, why can't I leave it unsaid?" suggests that the singer knows they would be better off keeping some thoughts to themselves, yet they cannot help but vocalize their every thought and feeling.


The chorus of the song further emphasizes the singer's struggle with excessive talking. They acknowledge that they talk too much and plead with their partner to "shut [them] up" with a kiss. The line "We could blame it all on human nature" suggests that this talking is a natural impulse for the singer, something they cannot control but also cannot quite understand. The bridge of the song speaks to the potential for silence to be more powerful than words, but the singer cannot help but continue to babble.


Overall, "Talk Too Much" speaks to the anxiety and urge to fill silence with meaningless talk, and the desire to be quieted by someone else. It highlights the struggle to control one's impulses, even when it would be better to do so.
