the meaning
Lillix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How far do
You see this oh
My truth is spoken whether
Or not you want to hear it
I'm sorry,
I worry though
Don't you ever say never
Or turn away

Say it all but not at all
Don't want to hear what you're really feeling
Forsaking the meaning
Take away the words I say
Realistic thoughts that I'm dreaming
Are you believing
Tell me what I wanna hear

Your teasing,
Misleading me
Where do you think we're going
Or leading me
I'm restless
Can't break you down
Though I know I don't know nothing
One day you may believe it

Say it all but not at all
Don't want to hear what you're really feeling
Forsaking the meaning
Take away the words I say
Realistic thoughts that i'm dreaming
Are you believing

Don't stray too far
The closer you are
The further the pain will fade away
I don't really care where you are
It will be either here or far
All and all this feeling
Will bring you home my man

So you say
Don't turn away
So you say
Don't turn away
So you stay
Don't turn away

Say it all but not at all
Don't want to hear what you're really feeling
Forsaking the meaning
Take away the words I say
Realistic thoughts that i'm dreaming
Are you believing
Tell me what I wanna hear

Say it all but not at all
(It will be either here or far)
Take away the words I say
(Bring you home again)
Say it all but not at all




Don't want to hear what you're really feeling
Forsaking the meaning

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lillix's song The Meaning delve into the complexities of communication and the importance of honesty in relationships. The opening lines question how far the other person can see, indicating a desire to be understood and for the truth to be acknowledged. The singer then goes on to assert their truth even if it may not be what the other person wants to hear. The chorus emphasizes the idea of forsaking the meaning, indicating that while words may be spoken, their true meaning may be lost or ignored. The singer grapples with the other person's behavior, feeling misled and restless, but also expressing hope that they may come to understand the truth one day.


The bridge, with the line "don't stray too far," seems to be a plea to the other person to not distance themselves too much, as this will only lead to more pain. The final lines repeat the chorus, with the added emphasis on telling the singer what they want to hear, rather than the truth.


Overall, the lyrics of The Meaning convey a sense of frustration and yearning for true understanding and communication in relationships.
