Talk Is Overrated
Jeremy Zucker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't wanna smoke, I don't need a drink
Just tell me how you feel, tell me what you think
'Cause I've been on my own for a fuckin' while
And I don't need a girl, I just wanna smile
Gettin' my mind right
I'll wait 'til the time's right
I'm meanin' to tell you
Why it's hard to sleep at night
There's nothin' to fear now
Girl, we should be here now
So why don't you hear me out?
I'm saying

Talk is overrated, let's just vibe
And love is overrated in my mind
Girl, talk is overrated, let's just vibe
Just for tonight
I'll be yours if you want me to
I'll be yours if you want me to

I've been hella stressed, I would rather chill
I know you looked at me, wonder how I deal
But look inside my soul, I don't mean to front
'Cause really I don't know what the fuck I want
I remember when we were more than friends
I would just pretend, that was cold
After all this shit, I could not let you in
Summer went, saved up all the money
That I would have spent
On you, girl

Talk is overrated, let's just vibe
And love is overrated in my mind
Girl, talk is overrated, let's just vibe
Just for tonight
I'll be yours if you want me to
I'll be yours if you want me to

Yeah, let's talk it out
Girl, time out
I know that you only with me for the clout, sit down
You had too much to drink
Maybe it's my fault
I remember you would pull up, pour up Hennessy askin' to smoke
Oh no, there you go again
Mixin' blow with downers
Brand new hoes around ya
And when the night is done
You be hittin' my line
Tell me your phone at one percent
3 A.M., you wanna vibe

Talk is overrated, let's just vibe
And love is overrated in my mind
Girl, talk is overrated, let's just vibe
Just for tonight




I'll be yours if you want me to
I'll be yours if you want me to

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jeremy Zucker's "Talk is Overrated" explore the push and pull in a relationship, particularly when it comes to communication. The singer acknowledges that he doesn't need material possessions like cigarettes or alcohol to enjoy the company of the person he's talking to, but he does need them to be honest about their feelings. He's been alone for a long time and just wants to smile again, but he's hesitant to open up and risk getting hurt. He knows that there's nothing to be afraid of, yet he struggles to sleep at night because he's so afraid of what might happen if he takes that leap of faith.


The chorus of "Talk is Overrated" reinforces this idea that actions speak louder than words when it comes to relationships. The singer is tired of surface-level conversations and wants to connect on a deeper level. Love, in his mind, is overrated because it's not enough to sustain a relationship all on its own. Vibe, on the other hand, can be powerful and transformative, at least for a little while. The singer is willing to devote himself to this connection for just one night, hoping that it will be enough to sustain him for a little longer.


Overall, "Talk is Overrated" is a melancholy but hopeful exploration of the complexities of modern dating. It acknowledges that it's difficult to find meaningful connections in a world that moves so fast, but it also suggests that it's worth trying anyway. By the end of the song, the singer seems to have resolved to simply enjoy the moment for what it is and not worry too much about what comes next.
