Hilary Duff debuts ‘We Don’t Talk’ during her ‘Small Rooms, Big Nerves’ tour stop, which fans believe is about estranged sister Haylie. The sisters were once close but haven’t been seen together since 2019, nor has Haylie posted on social media about Hilary’s return to music. However, they still follow each other on Instagram. In the song, Hilary sings about two people who come from ‘the same blood’ and ‘the same home’ but they ‘don’t talk.’ She also sings about wishing for a reconciliation and a chance to sit down and discuss their feelings.
[Verse 1]
I’m not sure when it happened
Not even sure what it was about
If I did something different
Would you feel something different?
Would you at least let me hear you out?
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause we come from the same home, the same blood
A different combination, but the same mom
People ask me how you’re doing, I wanna say amazing
But the truth is that I don’t know
What I always end up saying is
[Chorus]
How we don’t talk, we don’t talk, talk about it
We don’t talk about anything anymore
Wе don’t talk, we don’t talk, talk about it
We don’t talk about anything anymore
[Post-Chorus]
(Wе don’t talk, we don’t talk)
(We don’t talk, we don’t talk)
[Verse 2]
Emotional eviction
No more sentimental overlap
And if it’s ’cause you’re jealous
God knows I would sell it all to break you off the bigger half
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause we come from the same home, the same blood
A different explanation, but the same thought
People ask me if I’ve seen you
And honestly I hate it
‘Cause the truth is that I need to
But there’s no way to relay it now if we don’t talk
[Chorus]
We don’t talk, talk about it
We don’t talk about anything anymore
We don’t talk, we don’t talk, talk about it
We don’t talk about anything anymore
[Bridge]
Let’s have it out
I’ll hear you out, you’ll hear me out on the couch
Get back to how we were as kids
And let’s break it down
So sick of being so sad about
How we don’t talk and you won’t talk about it
[Chorus]
We don’t talk, we don’t talk, talk about it
We don’t talk about anything anymore
We don’t talk, we don’t talk, talk about it
We don’t talk about anything anymore
[Outro]
(We don’t talk, we don’t talk)
(We don’t talk, we don’t talk)
(We don’t talk, we don’t talk)
(We don’t talk, we don’t talk)
