Talk Me Out of It
Lyrics and Music by Andrew Weiss

Last night I placed a bet that maybe someone would forget that today's my birthday
And when I opened my first card, paying up was really hard cause it forced me to admit that someone loves me
We're so used to looking the other way, I never thought that I'd come to say that I just missed the best part of the movie
It was a feature presentation, a figment of my imagination, and I never believe what's going on up there
Maybe I should know better than to put my trust in a hero
Cause no knows just what they did to get there

I know I have issues with my trust, and I frown on myself with disgust cause deep down I know that no one else is after me
But your idea of a good time is an idea different than mine, we can agree to disagree, just let me have my moment

Maybe I should know better than to try to count back from zero
It was always just a trick that they used to play

Someone try to talk me out of it, someone convince me that I'm wrong
I may not have the answer, but I'm always willing to learn
Someone try to talk me out of it, someone sing me a different song
I swear that I can take it, but you knew that all along, so talk me out of it, just talk me out of it

Well, I tried to invent a tradition to give up my superstition of stepping over cracks along the sidewalk Cause when people are afraid of giving themselves away, they're missing out on life, and I don't want that
But I fell flat on my face, as if the knots of my laces untied and I had never walked before
Cause in a way I never have, but I'm on a different path, and I'm covering up my tracks, so no one finds me

Maybe I should know better than to try to be a hero
Cause I'd be giving up more than I have

Someone try to talk me out of it, someone convince me that I'm wrong
I may not have the answer, but I'm always willing to learn
Someone try to talk me out of it, someone sing me a different song
I swear that I can take it, but you knew that all along, so talk me out of it, talk me out of it

But you can try to talk me out if it, convince me that I'm wrong
You can tell me the whole thing was a joke, and you were only playing along
You can try to talk me out of it, you can sing me a different song
I swear that I can take it, my skin was always strong, so talk me out of it





Talk me out of it, talk me out of it

Line by Line Meaning

Last night I placed a bet that maybe someone would forget that today's my birthday
Yesterday, I took a chance that perhaps someone would overlook the fact that today is the anniversary of my birth


And when I opened my first card, paying up was really hard cause it forced me to admit that someone loves me
Upon receiving my initial card, it became difficult to accept because it compelled me to acknowledge that there is someone who cares for me


We're so used to looking the other way, I never thought that I'd come to say that I just missed the best part of the movie
We have become accustomed to averting our gaze, and it never occurred to me that I would admit to having overlooked the most captivating aspect of the film


It was a feature presentation, a figment of my imagination, and I never believe what's going on up there
It was a remarkable display, a creation of my mind, and I never trust what is occurring in that realm


Maybe I should know better than to put my trust in a hero
Perhaps I ought to possess greater knowledge than to have faith in a figure of great courage or nobility


Cause no knows just what they did to get there
Because nobody comprehends the actions they undertook to attain that position


I know I have issues with my trust, and I frown on myself with disgust cause deep down I know that no one else is after me
I am aware that I struggle with placing trust in others, and I show disapproval towards myself because I realize that nobody else has any ulterior motives concerning me


But your idea of a good time is an idea different than mine, we can agree to disagree, just let me have my moment
However, your concept of enjoyment diverges from mine, and although we may not concur, permit me to revel in my own experience


Maybe I should know better than to try to count back from zero
Perhaps I should possess greater understanding than to attempt reverting to an initial state


It was always just a trick that they used to play
It was perpetually merely a deceitful act that they employed


Someone try to talk me out of it, someone convince me that I'm wrong
Some individual endeavored to dissuade me, to persuade me that my beliefs are incorrect


I may not have the answer, but I'm always willing to learn
Although I may lack the solution, I am perpetually open to acquiring knowledge


Someone try to talk me out of it, someone sing me a different song
Someone endeavor to persuade me against my current course, someone offer a contrasting perspective


I swear that I can take it, but you knew that all along, so talk me out of it, just talk me out of it
I promise that I can endure it, but you were already aware of this fact, so please try to dissuade me, just try to dissuade me


Well, I tried to invent a tradition to give up my superstition of stepping over cracks along the sidewalk
Well, I made an attempt to establish a custom in order to abandon my irrational belief in avoiding walking over fissures in the pavement


Cause when people are afraid of giving themselves away, they're missing out on life, and I don't want that
Because when individuals are apprehensive about revealing their true selves, they are depriving themselves of the full experience of life, and I do not desire that


But I fell flat on my face, as if the knots of my laces untied and I had never walked before
However, I failed embarrassingly, as if my shoelaces suddenly came undone, and I had completely forgotten how to walk


Cause in a way I never have, but I'm on a different path, and I'm covering up my tracks, so no one finds me
For in a sense, I have never truly experienced it, yet I am pursuing an unconventional route, while simultaneously concealing my actions to avoid detection


Maybe I should know better than to try to be a hero
Perhaps I should possess greater wisdom than to endeavor to become a heroic figure


Cause I'd be giving up more than I have
Because I would be relinquishing more than I currently possess


But you can try to talk me out if it, convince me that I'm wrong
However, you can make an effort to dissuade me, to persuade me that my beliefs are erroneous


You can tell me the whole thing was a joke, and you were only playing along
You can inform me that the entire situation was merely a jest, and you were merely participating in the charade


You can try to talk me out of it, you can sing me a different song
You have the ability to attempt to dissuade me, to offer an alternative perspective


I swear that I can take it, my skin was always strong, so talk me out of it
I assure you that I can endure it, my resilience has always been steadfast, therefore, please try to dissuade me


Talk me out of it, talk me out of it
Attempt to persuade me against my convictions, make an effort to dissuade me from my current course
