Shut Up
Dj Rynno Feat. Sylvia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Every single cartwheel you do
Sends me spiraling over to you
But when I get there I can't dance
My sexlessness puts me in a trance

And it brings out the worst in me

Over time I made a rift
But ended up with a split lip
My body, it belonged to you
But now it stays inside my room

And it brings out the worst in me

You all speak so naturally
And dissolve me so casually
When your conversations done
I have bitten off my tongue

And it brings out the worst in me

I can't find chords, I can't find rhymes
That make sense of my true design
They just exist to tell you this:





There is no truth
There is only bliss

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, the singer is expressing their emotions and experiences regarding a particular person and their interactions with them. The first verse describes how every action or gesture the person, referred to as "you," makes captivates and overwhelms the singer, symbolized by cartwheels. However, when they finally approach this person, they feel incapable of fully engaging or expressing themselves due to their own inner struggles with their sexuality or lack thereof. This internal conflict leaves them feeling entranced.


The second verse delves into the consequences of their relationship, as indicated by the mention of a rift and a split lip. The singer implies that they gave a part of their body, either metaphorically or literally, to this person. However, this ownership or possession is no longer valid, and they now confine themselves to their room. This withdrawal may be a result of feeling mistreated or taken advantage of in the relationship.


The third verse addresses the impact of the conversations held with "you" and how they affect the singer. The natural ease with which others speak and dissolve the singer afterward signifies a certain detachment or disregard for their feelings. Metaphorically, the singer claims to have bitten off their tongue after each conversation ends, suggesting a sense of being silenced or unable to articulate their thoughts and emotions fully. This suppression of their voice contributes to the negative aspects of their personality being brought to the surface.


The final verse reflects the singer's struggles in expressing their true self and finding meaning in their existence. They feel incapable of finding the right words or ideas to comprehend their own identity, resulting in a lack of authenticity in their songs. Rather than offering a definitive truth, the lyrics imply that only moments of happiness or contentment, represented by bliss, exist. This could also hint at the idea that the singer's true self is masked or concealed, leaving behind only fleeting moments of joy.


Overall, the song explores themes of self-doubt, confusion, and a sense of being overshadowed or silenced by a turbulent relationship. It reflects the inner turmoil and struggles faced by the singer while trying to maintain a connection with the person they address as "you."
