Talk
Lights and Fuses Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let down when you're on top, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, you don't stop
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Well, welcome home, midnight till dawn
Light the battle fields, we'll tear the walls down
The girl pulls her own, head-start to fall
See the shock of a citywide blackout

She takes the cake to the podium top
I got nothing left now but to carry on, I'll carry on
Well, welcome home, midnight till dawn
Light the battle fields and let her carry you on

Hey, so make your best wishes
I like to watch them all circle around

Let down when you're on top, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, the last call
On the house where the lover's hanging on

Back down, get on the wall, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, you don't stop
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Well, welcome home, another late night show
Inviting, with a knock out
The girl takes the talk, cheats you out of the walk
Paralyzing from the waist down

I've caught the wind from the fits you throw
I've got nothing left now but to let it go, I'll let it go
Well, welcome home, another late night show
We're fighting for the knockout

Hey, so make your best wishes
I like to watch them all circle around
Hey, the lottery you wasted
I watch you burn your sweepstakes to the ground

Let down when you're on top, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, the last call
On the house where the lovers hanging on

Back down, get on the wall, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, you don't stop
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

I wanna throw in the towel, yeah
I wanna throw in the towel, oh, oh, yeah
I wanna throw in the towel

So this is how it feels to be down
So this is what it feels like
Yeah, I watch them circle around

Let down when you're on top, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, the last call
On the house where the lovers hanging on

Back down, get on the wall, you don't stop
You gotta let the little lady talk
One round says you both drop, you don't stop
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Well, welcome home
Well, welcome home, hey, hey
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Well, welcome home
Well, welcome home, hey, hey
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Well, welcome home
Well, welcome home, hey, hey
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Well, welcome home




Well, welcome home, hey, hey
You don't stop the lovers hanging on

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lights and Fuses's song "Talk" depict a situation where there is tension and conflict between two people in a relationship. The lines "Let down when you're on top, you don't stop" suggest that when one person feels disappointed or betrayed, they continue to hold onto their position of power and domination. However, the phrase "You gotta let the little lady talk" implies that the other person in the relationship, who may be perceived as weaker or less powerful, also deserves a chance to voice their thoughts and feelings.


The lyrics further mention a citywide blackout and a late-night show, painting a picture of the chaotic and intense atmosphere surrounding the relationship. The line "Light the battle fields, we'll tear the walls down" could symbolize the destructive nature of the conflict. The singer seems to be caught in the middle, witnessing the power struggle without being able to intervene or reconcile the situation. The repetitiveness of the chorus emphasizes the cyclical nature of the conflict, with neither party willing to back down or stop fighting.


Overall, the song explores themes of power dynamics, communication breakdown, and the struggle to maintain a relationship in the face of conflict and tension.

One of the best times I have ever had in a cinema. M:I-7 is a beast of a film that offers up mounds of suspense, humor and thrills. Definitely a well crafted movie with action pieces that are off the charts.

Henrik Tveit

It's a very entertaining movie, for sure. But it has a lot of issues.

It's no Fallout.
