Louder Than Words Lyrics

Cover art for Louder Than Words lyrics by Celldweller

First of all, I want to say this song kicks butt! Wonderful guitar riffs and harmonization on the guitars and vocals alike. The lyrics are powerful and well written out. Another great title by Klayton of Celldweller!

The message in this song is somewhat obvious; it's listed right in the title! What this track is trying to say is that no matter how bad you want something done, the only way to have it happen is to do it yourself! Actions speak louder than words! The lines "The Volume's always the same" and "Here we go again" are Klayton's way of saying that he's heard way too much of talking about getting things done, and nobody's taking initiative and doing it. He's sick of it. "I don't want to hear dead words from you" backs up my idea of the song's message; [Dead] Words do nothing to help your cause, don't say them unless you intend on pushing for a conclusion! The whole "Shut up!" thing is just another hint that he hates people complaining about things that they want to happen and not acting on their complaints.
