Makoto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh, I'm thinking of everything you should've said
Last works
Oh, the lost within you head

Leaving behind all the truth

So long
Baby you underestimate my love
If anything there was too much
We've both been so crazy so was lets it through
But I'm not used to it so I just can't let go
'Cause I'm thinking about to untold
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
But I'm not used to it so I just can't let go
'Cause I'm thinking about to untold
So much, so long
So much, so long
So much, so long
So much, so long
So much, so long
So long
Baby you underestimate my love
If anything there was too much
We've both been so crazy so was lets it through
But I'm not used to it so I just can't let go
'Cause I'm thinking about to untold
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
The lyrics of Makoto & Deeizm's song Untold seem to be about a relationship that has ended or is coming to an end, and the regret of leaving things unsaid. The singer is haunted by thoughts of what could have been and all the things they wish they had said. The line "I'm thinking of everything you should've said" implies that they believe the other person is also feeling the same way. The "lost within your head" could be referring to the other person's thoughts and feelings that were never shared, and the singer is left with the feeling of "untold" secrets and unrevealed emotions.
The chorus reassures the other person that they "underestimate my love" and that "there was too much" between them to just let it go. However, the singer is struggling to move on because they cannot stop thinking about the untold things that could have changed the outcome of their relationship. The repetition of "so much, so long" could refer to how much time and effort they both put into the relationship, and the sadness the singer feels in knowing it's over.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of regret and longing for what could have been, and the difficulty of moving on when there are unresolved feelings and thoughts left unsaid.
