Land of Talk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold
Now
You're leaving something out
Like when we leave
It's more than just a cloud
It's in me
I'm living at the station
What to be
It's never rolling in
And it sucks so bad

It's not hard
It's not free
It takes time to see

Gold
Now
We're leaving something out
Like when you leave
It's more than just a cloud
One
Two
Three
I'm living at the station
What to be
It's never rolling in and it sucks so bad

It's not hard
It's not free
It takes time to see

It's jet black




It breaks backs
It's not coming back

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Land of Talk's Breaxxbaxx are open to interpretation, but at their core, they express a feeling of longing and uncertainty. The song seems to be about a relationship that has ended, with the singer struggling to move on. The opening lines set the tone: "Hold/ Now/ You're leaving something out." This suggests that someone has left something important unsaid, perhaps about the breakup itself or the reasons for it. The singer is left feeling incomplete and unsure how to move forward.


The repeated refrain of "It's not hard/ It's not free/ It takes time to see" underscores the difficulty of letting go and moving on. Even though the singer knows that it's not an easy process, they feel stuck at the metaphorical station, waiting for something to arrive that may never come. The use of "station" as a metaphor carries several connotations: it suggests both a sense of waiting and a sense of being in transit, as if the singer is on a journey towards some unknown destination. The use of "cloud" and "gold" as metaphors for the relationship further give a sense of something intangible and elusive that is being sought after.


The closing lines of the song, "It's jet black/ It breaks backs/ It's not coming back," leave the listener with a sense of finality and loss. The image of something that is jet black and breaking backs suggests a heavy burden that cannot be lifted. The final line, "It's not coming back," confirms that whatever was lost is gone forever. Overall, Breaxxbaxx is a poignant and introspective song that expresses the universal experience of struggling to let go of something that once was.
