Story Untold Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't say a word
We've never been friends
But that you don't realize
By trying to convince me that you did nothing wrong
You're convincing yourself it wasn't you all along
Every sip you take won't make the past go away
It's time to face it now
You're on your own
I couldn't care less about the monster you are
But still I was there trying to make you see
You'd already taken it too far
When you said words don't hit hard enough
You said words don't hit hard enough
How could you believe
I'd be on your side
Well I'm not so naive
But that you don't realize
You told me that's just the way you were born and raised
But I can't feel sorry for you and I can't erase
Those memories your head and the scars that you left behind
You can't escape anymore
It's time to face it now
You're on your own
I couldn't care less about the monster you are
But still I was there trying to make you see
You'd already taken it too far
When you said words don't hit hard enough
I couldn't care less about the monster you are
But still I was there trying to make you see
You'd already taken it too far
When you said words don't hit hard enough
You said words don't hit hard enough
I couldn't care less about the monster you are
But still I was there trying to make you see
You'd already taken it too far
When you said words don't hit hard enough
And don't you swear to me she's twisting the story
When all that she did was she made me see
You'd already taken it too far
When you said words don't hit hard enough
You said words don't hit hard enough
"Locked Down" is a song by the Canadian pop punk band, Story Untold. The song is about a relationship that has ended and the singer realizing that the person they were involved with is a monster. The opening line, "So this is the end, don't say a word, we've never been friends", is telling the person that the relationship is over, and they should not try to defend themselves or change the situation. The following lines, "By trying to convince me that you did nothing wrong, you're convincing yourself it wasn't you all along", highlight how the person is delusional about their actions.
The line "You said words don't hit hard enough" shows that this individual was using words in a hurtful way, but they did not realize the damage they were causing. The singer is seen trying to make them realize that they have gone too far, but it's too late, and they are on their own. The chorus, "I couldn't care less about the monster you are, But still I was there trying to make you see", emphasizes the singer's indifference to the person, but also the frustration they feel in trying to help them.
The bridge in the song takes a turn when the person tries to deflect and blame someone else for their actions, but the singer sees through their lies. The song ends with the repeated line, "You said words don't hit hard enough", stressing the harm that the person has done with their words and that they will have to face the consequences of their actions.
