What You Keep Inside
Liquido Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All that we deserve now
Is everything we get, I know
But it depends on something
Something we don't have, I know

But still I am a rich man
With what you said
Truth is what we see
And what we see must fail, I know

We're supposed to read the letters
Mailed by commonsense, I know
We will keep our secret
No matter what they say:

What you keep inside, I know
What you keep inside, I know
And it feels so good
You used to hand me candies

As sweet as they could be, I know
You made me feel exhausted
Demented like a freak, I know
Still I am a rich man

With what you say:
What you keep inside, I know
What you keep inside, I know
And it feels so good





Remembrance of all we shared
I drift away and

recall
The thought of what we had
Will keep me standing tall, I know


These lyrics by Liquido in their song What You Keep Inside offer a deep introspection into the human mind and the secrets it keeps. The opening lines - "All that we deserve now, Is everything we get, I know, But it depends on something, Something we don't have, I know" - reflect on how people often get what they deserve but there is something lacking that they truly want. In other words, there is a void within them that needs to be filled. Despite this, the next set of lines - "But still I am a rich man, With what you said, Truth is what we see, And what we see must fail, I know" - offer a glimmer of hope. The singer feels rich because of the truths they have discovered from the person they are addressing, but they also acknowledge that what they are seeing may not always be true.


The song goes on to explore the idea of secrets and how people hold onto them no matter what. The lines - "We're supposed to read the letters, Mailed by commonsense, I know, We will keep our secret, No matter what they say" - highlight how people are often expected to do or say certain things, but they keep their secrets close to their hearts. The chorus - "What you keep inside, I know, What you keep inside, I know, And it feels so good" - suggests that the singer is privy to the secrets of the person they are addressing, and they are able to feel a sense of closeness and bonding because of it. The song ends with a sense of nostalgia - "Remembrance of all we shared, I drift away and recall, The thought of what we had, Will keep me standing tall, I know" - suggesting that the singer feels a sense of loss but is comforted by the memories they have of the person they are addressing.


Line by Line Meaning

All that we deserve now
We only deserve what we get


Is everything we get, I know
We should be satisfied with what we get


But it depends on something
Our satisfaction depends on something


Something we don't have, I know
We lack something that affects our satisfaction


But still I am a rich man
Despite that, I am content


With what you said
I am content with what you said


Truth is what we see
The truth is what we perceive


And what we see must fail, I know
Our perceptions are not always accurate


We're supposed to read the letters
We should pay attention to common sense


Mailed by commonsense, I know
Common sense can guide us


We will keep our secret
We will keep our secret hidden


No matter what they say:
Despite what others say


What you keep inside, I know
I understand your hidden thoughts


And it feels so good
It feels satisfying to have that understanding


You used to hand me candies
You used to give me sweet things


As sweet as they could be, I know
They were very sweet


You made me feel exhausted
I felt drained


Demented like a freak, I know
I felt crazy and abnormal


Remembrance of all we shared
Memories of what we shared


I drift away and lose my head, I know
I get lost in my thoughts


But I hold on to the moments
I cherish those memories


And all the things you said, I know
I remember what you said


Although the truth is bitter
The truth can be hard to accept


And we can't have it all, I know
We can't have everything we want


We keep our secrets hidden
We hide our secrets


Until we stand up tall:
Until we are strong enough


To have someone who knows
To have someone who understand us


The depths of our souls, I know
The hidden parts of our being


And can see beyond the surface
And looks deeper than appearances


To the things we hide below, I know
To the hidden parts of us


To have someone who understands
To have someone who knows us well


And can love me in spite of them
And can love us despite our flaws


And help me play my part, I know
To help us fulfill our role


So let us keep it quiet
Let's keep it secret


And never let it show, I know
And never reveal it to others


What we keep inside is precious
Our secrets are valuable


And only we must know:
We are the only ones who should know our secrets
