Talk
Spice And Company Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spend most of my days alone
Even when I'm with you
Is there a light that's gonna turn on
So you can see what I've been through?
I tried so hard to feel so good
And I still I know I'm alive
I can't stop, but I know I should
Can we try one more time? Yeah

Why don't you talk to me?
Why don't you speak to me?
I love it when you look at me
A secret only I can see
Why don't you talk to me?

Well now
I wonder how far I can go
To feel your rush in my head
I promise after this I'll do no more
Just one more time before bed
I tried so hard to make it good
And I know I'm alive
I can't stop, but I know I should
Can we try one more time?

Why don't you talk to me?
Why don't you speak to me?
I love it when you look at me
A secret only I can see
Why don't you talk to me?

I've done some good things
They're never enough
I watch my life going by
Three weeks and one day I know
Looking at you, can't we just try one more time?

Why don't you talk to me?
Why don't you speak to me?
I love it when you look at me
A secret only I can see

Why don't you talk to me?
Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me
Why don't you talk to me?
Why don't you talk to me?
Why don't you talk to me?




Talk to me
Talk to me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Spice And Company's song "Talk" express feelings of loneliness, longing for communication, and a desire for connection. The singer describes spending most of their days alone, even when they are with someone else, highlighting the lack of emotional intimacy in the relationship. They yearn for a light to turn on so that the other person can finally understand and empathize with what they have been through.


The lines "I tried so hard to feel so good / And I still I know I'm alive / I can't stop, but I know I should / Can we try one more time?" demonstrate the singer's efforts to find happiness and fulfilment, yet they also acknowledge their own inability to break free from this cycle. Despite this, they still want to give it another chance, hoping for a breakthrough in communication.


As the song progresses, the singer becomes more desperate for connection, wondering how far they can go just to experience a rush in their head. They promise themselves that after this, they won't pursue any further, but they need just one more encounter before bedtime. This highlights the singer's craving for emotional and physical connection, despite the knowledge that it may not be healthy or sustainable.


The repetition of "Why don't you talk to me?" throughout the song emphasizes the central theme of communication. The singer longs for the other person to speak to them, to open up and share their thoughts, feelings, and secrets. They find solace in being looked at by this person, as if they hold a secret that only the singer can see. It suggests that they find comfort in the mere presence and attention of the other person, even if verbal communication is lacking.


In the final verses, the singer reflects on their life, feeling as though their good deeds are never enough. Time seems to be slipping away, and they want to seize the opportunity to try one more time with the person they are addressing. The repetition of the plea "Talk to me" emphasizes their longing for a deeper connection and the frustration of feeling unheard.


Overall, "Talk" delves into the challenges of communication, the longing for emotional connection, and the struggle to break free from patterns of loneliness and isolation. It captures the complex emotions and desires that can arise within relationships when genuine communication is lacking.
