Little Talks
Of Monsters and Men Lyrics

(Hey, hey, hey)

I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear
The stairs creak as you sleep
It's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
And some days I can't even dress myself
It's killing me to see you this way

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

(Hey, hey, hey)

There's an old voice in my head
That's holding me back
Well, tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will be over and buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
And full of life and full of love
Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
Your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear

'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

(Hey)
Don't listen to a word I say
(Hey)
The screams all sound the same
(Hey)

Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore (hey, hey)

You're gone, gone, gone away
I watched you disappear
All that's left is a ghost of you
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart
There's nothing we can do
Just let me go, we'll meet again soon

Now wait, wait, wait for me, please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep

(Hey)
Don't listen to a word I say
(Hey)
The screams all sound the same
(Hey)

Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

Don't listen to a word I say
(Hey)
The screams all sound the same
(Hey)

Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

This song is about the relationship between two people, one of whom has died. The lyrics describe the living person having conversations with the dead person in their mind, as if they are still present. The song explores themes of grief, loss, and the power of memory to keep loved ones alive in our hearts. The song is about how the person who passed away is still with the person who is alive in the form of memories, thoughts and talks. It also express the idea that we never truly lose the people we love, even if they are no longer physically with us. 😟

Piergiorgio Cestra

Yeah. I think the lady is probably very elderly and has dementia. She's wondering in her house and imagines her dead husband. This explains what the "screams" are about, she can't even realize what is really going on there because of it (...through the truth may vary...). I think she also feels that her time is running out and will soon pass away ("soon it will be over and buried with our past" which on the second verse is answered with "just let me go we will meet again soon").
I especially like the references that this song has to the Nordic culture (the boats symbolize the passing in the afterlife) and kind of makes me think that we should make the best of our lives while we can.

For me this song is a lot about having depression and/or depressed partner. I mean not because of loss, because of mental struggles. "Some days I can't even dress myself / It's killing me to see you this way" and "Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right / Your mind is playing tricks with you my dear" - that's exactly how it feels. And it's hard. It's overwhelming. But though the truth may vary this ship will carry your body safe to shore, so it's gonna be alright. It surely will.

Thank you for lining up the words so right for many people. Exactly. I don't like a word depression, i rather think of it as "distression"- feels less permanent. Yet, once "distressed"- then you 're bound to find yourself there once in a while. This song is good, it gives an irrational upbeat and comfort ❤️ and the video is pure joy to imagination:)

My great grandmother had dementia. She passed away May 25th, 2022. She loved going for car rides, so she peacefully passed with her grandson during a lake side drive. She was a strong, compassionate, loving, and intelligent person. This song hits differently now, because this reminds me of dementia. I will always remember and relish the times I had with her, and hopefully, never forget her. I really like this song, and I will keep listening to it knowing that this song will make me think of my grandmother, Linda Ann Kenyon.

It’s been 3 years since I got divorced from my ex wife. I made so many mistakes, took her for granted and ruined our relationship. She showed me unconditional love and I just kept pushing her away. Finally, she had enough and we split. I don’t understand why, but this song makes me so nostalgic for when we were young, carefree and in love. The line “there’s an old voice in my head holding me back” really hits home for me. I know I’ll find love again someday, but man is it lonely around here. I want to move on so bad.

Calling this a rip-off is like calling Driving Home For Christmas a rip-off of Last Christmas because both are Christmas songs.

What I find particularly beautiful about this video, is the song first, Little Talks is a beautiful song. It’s like it’s a duet-but doesn’t feel like one. I also like the 5 men we see, the video feels like they are going on an adventure they didn’t ask for, they ran into the women, they discovered her and she is protecting them. I also feel like the 5 men are they have, just each other in what ever world they are living in, it’s a hostile world. This song makes me feelings I couldn’t feel on my own. Bravo.

Going to Heaven is simple

@LightDarkEquivalent 714 The only way to get those memories is to go to Heaven. The Bible says, “For the past troubles will be forgotten and hidden from my eyes.” It is likely only our “past troubles” will be forgotten, not all of our memories. Our memories will eventually be cleansed, redeemed, healed, and restored, not erased. Only for those within Christ.

i remember when younger listening to this song, it was one of my favorites but i never connected the lyrics, i never thought of a sad song. after almost 11 living and experiencing different feelings i can’t describe what this song brings to me anymore. when i listen to the lyrics i remember my childhood and that sense of nostalgia and how much i miss those days where everything was easier and happier, how i don’t want to let go of that time where i could enjoy everything with no concerns.

I don't like walking around this old and empty house
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear
The stairs creak as you sleep
It's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
And some days I can't even dress myself
It's killing me to see you this way
'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
There's an old voice in my head
That's holding me back
Well, tell her that I miss our little talks
Soon it will be over and buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
And full of life and full of love
Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
Your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear
'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Don't listen to a word I say
(Hey)
The screams all sound the same
(Hey)
And though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
You're gone, gone, gone away
I watched you disappear
All that's left is a ghost of you
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart
There's nothing we can do
Just let me go, we'll meet again soon
Now wait, wait, wait for me, please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep
Don't listen to a word I say
(Hey)
The screams all sound the same
(Hey)
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Don't listen to a word I say
(Hey)
The screams all sound the same
(Hey)
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

For those who don’t know what this song is about..

It’s about a relationship. From the couple, the husband passed away and the song is the conversation between them.

Once you actually look at the lyrics and know the meaning while you listen to it, it really hits differently-

Glen Willmot

I use this song and video to help people who are stuck in their past (the guardian woman) to see that the monsters that they lash out against are actually their friends and family coming to rescue them from their memories (the 5 men walking). Each monster carries a different way of support ("Though the truth may vary"), but eventually one of them comes through and helps them rise above their old life, and give them the confidence to not follow their memories sadly, but to reflect on them and smile.

Around the time this song came out 2013, 2014 was in HS working at McDonalds all the time with my friends. We had a blast. I vividly remember whenever this song came on while I was sweeping or whatever I would think "wow things won't always be this way one day I'll have a real job and look back at this time in life fondly. I better enjoy this." It's just this weird connection that I make whenever I hear this song

My fiancé passed away in tragic circumstances in 2013. This song followed me since then. Loosing him forced me to find myself. I imagine this is the conversation we have when I’m struggling without him. It’s been a while and I still expect him to wake me up with his silly dance or get so drunk after the football I have to help him to bed. I miss him. This song ? Beautiful thank you 😊
