shut up
Sky-Fi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't want to lose you to the stars, or push you back into my arms
I'm familiar with the scars
But I'm lonely
Don't want to choose you or the dark, I'm a prison but the bars
Are the bottom of a bottle
That I'm holding
Oh I wish it was your body, wish I wasn't such a sucker
For my own means
I've been meaning to survive, past survival when I thrived by you
So just shut up and hold me
'Cause dammit I'm folding
If you swear that you know me
Then it's better we don't speak
Just shut up and hold me
Just give me the moment
I went from loving you so deep
To having you stolen
I need you to hold me
Like maybe for a second, I can finally take a breath and
Catch a vision of the version that I won't be
While I'm choking on emotions I'm incapable of focusing
On anything - so shut up and hold me
And don't let go
Hold me
'Cause dammit I'm folding
If you swear that you know me
Then it's better we don't speak
Just shut up and hold me
Just give me the moment
I went from loving you so deep
To having you stolen
I need you to hold me
Sky-Fi's song "Shut Up" is a powerful and emotional ballad about the struggles of a complicated relationship. The opening lines reveal the singer's fear of losing their loved one to the stars, but she also doesn't want to hold onto them in a way that feels like imprisonment. She's familiar with the scars that love can leave and is struggling with loneliness. She wishes for her partner's body, but also realizes that she needs to escape her own selfish struggles. When the chorus hits, she begs her partner to "shut up and hold me." She needs the comfort of their embrace and doesn't want to talk about the complicated feelings that are tearing them apart.
As the song continues, we get the sense that the singer is lost and searching for something to hold onto. She needs her partner to hold her, even if it's just for a moment. She's choking on her emotions and can't focus on anything but her pain. But in the arms of her loved one, she can finally take a breath and catch a glimpse of the person she wants to be.
"Shut Up" is a deeply moving song that speaks to the complexities of love and relationships. It's a reminder that sometimes the best thing we can do is just be there for the people we love, without judgment or hesitation.

So she told me
She confided in me
I don't want to lose you to the stars, or push you back into my arms
I'm afraid of losing you to ambition or suffocating you with love
I'm familiar with the scars
I've been hurt before
But I'm lonely
I'm still feeling isolated despite being with you
Don't want to choose you or the dark, I'm a prison but the bars
I don't want to choose between being with you or being alone in my sadness
Are the bottom of a bottle
Alcohol is my coping mechanism
That I'm holding
I'm holding on to my addiction
Oh I wish it was your body, wish I wasn't such a sucker
I want your comfort instead of relying on unhealthy habits
Stuck inside this selfish struggle
I'm trapped in a cycle of putting my own needs before others'
For my own means
To benefit myself
I've been meaning to survive, past survival when I thrived by you
I want to move on from just surviving and thrive with you again
So just shut up and hold me
Stop talking and comfort me physically
'Cause dammit I'm folding
I'm about to break down
If you swear that you know me
If you claim to understand me
Then it's better we don't speak
We should just be quiet and let me feel your support
Just give me the moment
Allow me to have my breakdown and be there for me
I went from loving you so deep
I used to love you very deeply
To having you stolen
But someone took you away from me
I need you to hold me
I need your physical comfort to help me through this
Like maybe for a second, I can finally take a breath and
Maybe with your comfort, I can have a moment of peace
Catch a vision of the version that I won't be
I can see myself being free from my current struggles
While I'm choking on emotions I'm incapable of focusing
But right now, I'm overwhelmed and can't process my feelings
On anything - so shut up and hold me
So just be here with me and let me feel your presence
And don't let go
Just hold me until I feel safe and secure again
