Shut up
Tyler Posey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Ooh)
(Ah)
(Oh)

I wish you'd open up your window
Letting all the air go
Out of this room, it's heavy
It's never fucking ending
Spinning walls, I owe it all
To drug abuse and alcohol
But when it's you, I usually always
End up feeling small

Two feet tall
Two feet tall
I'm learning how to shut my mouth
And leave it when it's wrong

Don't speak, it'll make it worse
Your words only make it hurt
So shut up, shut up, shut up
You said enough, so shut up, shut up, shut up
I'm not enough for you

I may still be a fuck up
But I'm a fuck up counting days
While you're counting on my mistakes
I know it hurts, but all you do is live in the pain
You crash, you burn
In the past
And toke another hit and I'll take the hits
You've been saving your right hook for this

Two feet tall
You make me feel two feet tall
I'm learning how to walk away
Even though it feels so wrong

Don't speak, it'll make it worse
Your words only make it hurt
So shut up, shut up, shut up
You said enough, so shut up, shut up, shut up
I'm not enough for you
Don't speak, it'll make it worse
Give it up, it'll never work
So shut up, shut up, shut up
You said enough, shut up, shut up, shut up
I'm not enough for you

Yeah, yeah
Whoa, oh
Oh, yeah

Don't speak, it'll make it worse
Your words only make it hurt
So shut up, shut up, shut up
You said enough, so shut up, shut up, shut up
I'm not enough for you
Don't speak, it'll make it worse
Give it up, it'll never work
So shut up, shut up, shut up
You said enough, so shut up, shut up, shut up
I'm not enough for you

Ooh, I'm not enough for you
Yeah, I'm not enough for you




Never enough, never enough
So shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Tyler Posey's song "Shut Up" explore the complexities of a damaged relationship. The song seems to be addressed to a lover who he argues with a lot. He expresses his frustration with the situation and wishes that she would just open up her window and let the air out of the room. To the singer, the atmosphere in the room is heavy and never-ending.


Posey acknowledges that his drug abuse and alcohol use may have contributed to the tension in their relationship. However, the song seems to suggest that his partner's condescending and belittling words are also a trigger for his substance use. He notes that when she speaks, she often makes him feel small and powerless.


Despite his desire to fix the relationship, the singer admits that he is not enough for her. He recognizes his own shortcomings and tries to learn how to walk away when things are wrong. In the end, the song emphasizes the need for communication in a relationship, but also acknowledges that sometimes, it's better to just shut up and let the silence do the talking.
