Sincerely Me
The Wind Walkers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So here I am once again writing to your my dear
I just need a way you can't talk back your point of view
Searching for words, erasing the slurs
I'm waiting in an aged café where I
Sought shelter from the pouring rain

With nobody to meet I sit and think
Contradicting what I once thought was perfect
My mind is racing but I can't stop writing
Every time a draft is done I start back at square one

You're my inspiration
My poetic license
You kept me sane with these pages
I'd rather write it than say it
I've got everything I need
Isolation it seems
You find that hard to believe but I'm writing history

I don't want to specify a single thing; I'm gone
I don't want to reminisce about the things you've done

Tuned into nothing the radio sounds
As I try to wrap my head around these coffee stains and off set lines

Just let me go
I need this more than you know
So fuck it, let me go

You're over-thinking everything just like me
Blindly pacing back and forth for answers you'll never see
You're my inspiration
My poetic license
You kept me sane with these pages
I'd rather write it than say it
I've got everything I need
Isolation it seems
You find that hard to believe but I'm writing history

With a stone in hand and a letter to say farewell
It's time I disappeared
I'll tie these words to the cobblestone
With a stone in hand and letter to say farewell
I'll make these world my own as I tie these words to the cobblestone

When you're a sinking ship you take every moment to breathe
You're just a ghost of a ghost
A soul that's lost at sea
Dear significant other
This letter's for you
Fuck you and everything you put me through
So read it once, read it slow




This was never meant to be
Signed sincerely me

Overall Meaning

The Wind Walkers' song "Sincerely Me" is a poignant letter written to a significant other, reflecting on the time spent together and the hurt caused by the relationship. It conveys the writer's inability to express their feelings through speaking and instead, seeks solace in writing. The lyrics in the first verse express the writer's frustration with not being able to communicate with their lover, and the second verse describes their mental turmoil regarding their beliefs and what they thought was perfect. Throughout the song, the writer takes comfort in their isolation and writes about their own history rather than limiting themselves to the relationship. However, in the final verse, the writer expresses their hurt and anger toward their significant other and ends the letter with a dark twist.


The lyrics to "Sincerely Me" use metaphors and imagery to convey the writer's emotions. For example, the coffee stains and offset lines represent the confusion and chaos in the writer's mind. The use of the phrase "poetic license" shows that writing serves as an escape for the writer and can be a way to change reality. The repetition of the phrase "signed sincerely me" emphasizes the finality of the letter. The song shows that sometimes, writing is the best way to express emotions when verbal communication is difficult.
