(Sullivan)
Through the years of decay we walk like tigers in cages
With each passing turn the smaller and smaller the circles
Every weapon and word legitimate now as protection
But these things should never be spoken
These things should never be spoken
I stand undefeated alone in the ring just pacing
The sweat and the blood dried on my hands all wasted
I'm shouting "come back and fight for I am the king"
But the lights are all out and the people are gone
We always burned brightest when no one was watching
Now I kiss the lines on your beautiful face
But these things should never be spoken
And sometimes your hunger for life seems like desperation
And when I read about the world these days all I can feel is hatred
The fortune teller is closing her doors
She looked into the crystal and saw nothing at all
They're waiting round here for something to happen
They won't really want it when it rolls out to greet them
But these things should never be spoken
These things should never be spoken
It is first released on November 21, 2016 as part of New Model Army's album "30th Anniversary Concert" which includes 29 tracks in total. ✔️
What is the meaning behind These Words lyrics?
When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, New Model Army's 'These Words' is a song that goes deep into the aspects of loneliness, hopelessness, and disenchantment. The words depict a scenario where one feels victorious but at the same time deserted, and the person has the desire for the most basic human needs like understanding and companionship. The author uses images such as 'walking like tigers in cages' and 'kissing the lines on your beautiful face' to show a combination of both strength and fragility, and the reiteration of the line 'These things should never be spoken' indicates on one side the presence of truth and on the other, the silence and the feelings that are kept hidden. The meanings behind the lyrics of the song are mainly about fear, love, and social issues, along with a bitterly broken heart, and less so, about the struggle and resilience, disillusionment, and the critique of society. The lyrics confront various adult themes like despair, hatred, and reflections on violence and personal struggle which might be considered inappropriate for children below 13. The language and imagery hint at a deeper emotional context which might need parental guidance. ✔️
