No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you
You don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you

You don't know me, you never ever did
Think you own me? Well, I know you always did

No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you, ohh
You don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you, ohh

Fallin' harder, than I thought I ever could
Lettin' go, is harder than it should

No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you, ohh
You don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you, ohh

No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you, ohh
Uou don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you, ohh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in J.I.D's song Untitled convey the emotions and thoughts of an unrequited love. The singer is eagerly thinking and falling for someone who might not feel as strongly for them. In the first verse, the singer acknowledges that the person they are thinking about does not talk to them, but they still can't stop thinking about them. The singer reflects on the possibility of an imbalance in the relationship as they quip "you don't know me, you never ever did". They then accuse their love interest of thinking they owned them, implying ownership in a relationship is not something they are looking for.

In the second verse, the singer further elaborates on their infatuation. Falling harder in a situation like this is not surprising, but they suggest that letting go is harder than it should be. The repetition of "No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you" and "You don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you" emphasizes the idea of one-sided love. Ultimately, the lyrics depict the complexity of unrequited love and how it feels to love someone who may not feel the same way.

Line by Line Meaning

No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you
There is silence between us, but my thoughts can't let you go

You don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you
You may not reciprocate my feelings, but my mind is consumed with you

You don't know me, you never ever did
I feel like you never truly understood me or my love for you

Think you own me? Well, I know you always did
I recognize that I allowed myself to be controlled by your actions and emotions

Fallin' harder, than I thought I ever could
My level of love and devotion for you is exceeding my expectations

Lettin' go, is harder than it should
I struggle with the idea of moving on and releasing my attachment to you

No one's talkin', just thinkin' about you, ohh
Despite the lack of communication, you remain a constant presence in my thoughts

You don't talk to me, but I'm thinkin' about you, ohh
Your silence hasn't stopped my mind from being consumed with thoughts of you
