Useless Phrases
King Princess Lyrics

The lyrics to Useless Phrases by King Princess suggest that the singer is being propositioned by an ex-lover to come back into a relationship, but they refuse to entertain such "useless phrases" because they have already confronted and accepted the reality of the situation. The singer believed they had established what the other person truly wants and therefore, they refuse to be persuaded by empty words. The phrase "useless phrases" could also be interpreted as referring to any empty promises or vapid declarations of love that may have been made in the past. The singer is implying that they have moved on and don't have time for such unproductive language.

The song itself is a commentary on the complexities of human communication and relationships. The title "Useless Phrases" is a reference to the way language is often used to fill space and say things without really meaning anything. This idea is further explored in the lyrics of the chorus, where the singer is frustrated with the use of words that are meaningless and are just used to fill silence. The song ultimately suggests that communication is a difficult and imperfect process, and that sometimes it's better to say nothing at all.
