No Thoughts

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Though it sounds
Hard to hear what you're trying to say when
Words are far too loud
I don't like that sound
Can't stop but nothing changes
I don't even talk about it
You don't really say
I don't even talk about it
You don't really say
I don't even talk about it
You don't really say
I don't even talk about it, no
It's hard to move in a generation
Though it sounds
Hard to hear what you're trying to say when
Words are far too loud
I don't like that sound
Can't try but nothing changes
You don't really seem to care and
I don't even talk about it
You don't really seem to care and
I don't even talk about it
You don't really seem to care and
I don't even talk about it
You don't really seem to care and
I don't even talk about it, no
You're falling, you're gone
You don't really seem to care and
I don't even talk about it now
The song "No Thoughts" by Cloud Nothings is about the struggle of communication in modern times, specifically the difficulty of getting one's thoughts across in a generation where words are loud and chaotic. The lyrics suggest that despite the noise around us, words can still be hard to hear and understand. The repetition of "I don't even talk about it" and "You don't really seem to care" emphasizes the lack of communication and understanding between people in the fast-paced, loud world we live in.
The line "Can't stop but nothing changes" alludes to a feeling of stagnation or hopelessness in the face of such difficulties. The last line, "You're falling, you're gone" could be interpreted as a reflection on the consequences of not being able to communicate effectively - losing connection with others and becoming isolated.
Overall, "No Thoughts" presents a bleak view of modern communication, highlighting the challenges and frustrations of trying to be heard in a world where everyone is shouting.
