I was tagged by @berlinini 😘 to write my favorite lyrics from Faith in the future, so here is it (I’m sorry in advance)

🤩 THE GREATEST

it’s you and me until the end

Life for us is never over

(“This is me and you, I need you and you need me, this is like codependency”, life for us is never over) The legacy he is building with us it’s gonna be here for years and years, his music and how we were part of it it’s gonna live forever.

😏 WRITTEN ALL OVER YOUR FACE

Hey babe! (?????? Best lyrics ever to start a song ???????)

A hurricane behind the door

So I’ve come ready for a war

…

When is good is really something

Can we please get back to us now?

It’s not always good but he is ready to fight and he knows it’s gonna come back to good times (like in Habit I hate myself) is fighting and loving and fighting… going in circles. But this time is more fun!

🫶🏻BIGGER THAN ME

When somebody told me I would change

I used to hide behind a smile

Faking smiles since Miss You

So come on call me liar

Yeah you’re so quick to judge

We are coming back to you bitch 😒

🍀LUCKY AGAING

‘Cause I’m a hard man to lose

But I figured it out, then made my way back

To a life I would choose

???? Hello he did it all himself FOR himself knowing himself he is just choosing a life he is proud of, this song is so much about the“I” concept.

🎶FACE THE MUSIC

I just wanna stay in the moment

The rest of my life

…

Close your eyes and count to ten

If you standing on the edge of falling

Open up and looking down

Everything that matters is forgotten

The feeling of forgiven yourself for enjoying life, the feeling of feeling whatever you are feeling and telling yourself it’s ok everything is forgotten just live the moment. Man 😪

😭CHICAGO

I mean, she is my favorite like ??? It hits so close to home

They say bitter ends turns sweet in time

Is that true of yours and mine?

Is like that thank you on walls turning bittersweet, and now a bitter end turning in sweet, baby ???

You always made me feel much better

And I’ll always be grateful for that

????? So close to home like I said, there’s few people that can make me feel better or comfortable and once I lose them, trying to reconnect with them is so fucking hard! This song is for me idc

🫂ALL THIS TIME

all the song tbh, these lyrics are so beautiful

I’m tryna find the words to say for ages

Just have patience

It’s not how you spend the time

It’s if you wasted

FUCK ME!!!! How he explains in one song how is always worth the PAIN of living for the ones you find and love in the way he is always looking for words and it seems like he never finds them but he does!! It’s just 🤯

🤘🏻OUT OF MY SYSTEM

I am only half of what I think I can be

What a statement, that’s all!

☠️HEADLINE

So fast to judge in error

You thought you knew me better

So quick to kill forever

Yeah bitch we came back for you!!!!, how dare someone to judge him and call him liar that’s the reason you are not longer his, now fuck you! 🙂

The perfect circle of poetry he builds with the beginning and the end of this song is just so sad.

🥹SATURDAYS

My heart might be broken

But I won’t be broken down

It’s the most Louis core ever 🫶🏻

🫠SILVER TONGUES

You and me until the end

Waking up to start again

Yeah the same feeling as in The greatest it’s you and me, we are stronger and happier together

🤔SHE IS BEAUTY WE ARE WORLD CLASS

I don’t understand her but I love her so much

Are we one, or are we two?

Are we me, or are we you?

Has it been all this before?

Do you see what I see?

Man, I don’t know what he is talking about but I can see my alter ego with this song

🏡COMMON PEOPLE

When I get lost, I go

Back to where I stared

Such a beautiful message and so Louis!!

✨ANGELS FLY

She is my emotional support everyone shut up

There’s a time for saying who did what

Where it went wrong, I wanna know all that

But right now all I need you to know is

You’ll be okay, we can talk tomorrow

He is just the best person to be friends with, this is what everyone need when feeling overwhelmed and guilty, someone who cares just to be there for you without saying a thing, waiting for you to be better to talk about it. I love this song so much!

❤️‍🩹HOLDING ON TO HEARTACHE

The questions that I’d ask you

Where did all go wrong?

…

You know the party’s over

When you standing in an empty space alone

And time can always heal you

If you let it make its way into your bones

Hello???? Time takes time to heal it you can't do it by yourself??? The way he wants to know what the fuck went wrong, but then he just wants to be fine and support people I’m honestly so proud of him for keeping this message through all his songs.

💆🏻‍♂️THATS THE WAY LOVE GOES

When it cuts you, when you bleed

That’s when you’re feeling it the most

More relatable lyrics about breakup have never been written.

Answers below the cut :)

The Greatest

Your face reminded me of a love you cannot hide

WAOYF

When we're finished saying nothing

SAYING. NOTHING. !!!!!! He's a genius

Bigger Than Me

I didn't read the signs Walkin' different lines I know I took a left Tryna make it right

I love the play of words with left and right. It's clever!

Lucky Again

You give and give until it's gone away

Face The Music

I don't wanna face the music, but I still wanna dance with you

Explanation here.

Chicago

Just because it didn't work doesn't mean it's meaningless to me It just wasn't meant to be

This is so simple, so direct, so hearbreaking. I love the repetitive use of the negative. He could've said "it didn't work but it was meaningful to me". But he said it wasn't meaningless. It had meaning even if it didn't work. Chicago has so many layers and interpretations, it's driving me insane. But I'm happy with the mystery. But it's so fkg sad :(.

All This Time

It's late now I'm tryna find the words to say for ages Just have patience It's not how you spend the time, it's if you waste it

Love the reference to Defenceless and the image of wasting time when thinking about the theme of change on the album.

And I keep on building mountains hoping that they'll turn to gold

I have no idea what this line means but it's beautiful.

Out Of My System

Slowly, I never wanna go slowly I only wanna go faster Towards disaster every time With me, I know you wanna come with me Take anything you can carry And leave everythin' else behind

Headline

Sometimes, I wake up and I hear you through the silence

Someone needs to make a compilation of Louis writing about silence and not finding the words to express himself

Saturdays

I'm gazin' at the floor Somebody's got your trainers on The ones that you wore When you walked out the door

I'm starin' at the door Somebody's got your trainers on The ones that you wore But you're not here anymore

I LOVE the repetition of this verse with the changes. I think it's some of my favourite lyrics of the album because it's so simple but relatable. He uses a simple object to bring up the image of the break up (walking out the door) and then uses that word again in the moment (starin' at the door) and conjuring the image of absence (you're not here anymore). You're not here anymore and you will never be here again. All of this from a stupid pair of SHOES he's insane. (And if I say: 'And all that's left of us is a cupboard full of clothes').

Silver Tongues

You said grass was a dirty drug You like to preach with a vodka in your mug

Louis writing this and Alex Turner writing 'Whilst wondering if your mother ever think of me' are the best things that happened to the world of lyrics in 2022. Kings of shade.

SIBWAWC

Surrounded by light, surrounded by light

TBHC I don't know any of the lyrics to this song, I'm just no thought just vibes! And this part has the greatest vibes!

Common People

I came from a good home A house full of terrace dreams That was enough for me

Angels Fly

I'm on my way with some time to borrow

Holding On To Heartache

I still have dreams about it The moments as they came The moments never shown to us Because we faded into darkness

I can still hear your silence I can still hear a clock that's tickin'

Nothing's ever easy To be honest, I'm not easy on myself

That's The Way Love Goes

Remember when you told me I should give it time? Well, here's the chance for you to take your own advice

The reference to Miss You!

Sea!! I need you to tell me exactly how good his high notes were in Silver Tongues' second verse. I think of you as The Music Nerd™️ person (complimentary) around here so your expert opinion is always appreciated! x

Hi!

The high notes in Silver Tongues come in these bolded lyrics (1:23 here):

“We stand up tall and beat our chests/ we say some things that we’ll regret.”

They are an A4, same high note we hear on Bigger Than Me. You can see the other high notes in Louis’ repertoire in this post.

Like most of Louis’ high notes in this range, he sings them in a chest voice, not falsetto. They are in a tenor’s range, but require some good breath support to reach. In recordings, Louis seems to be able to reach A4 and B4 consistently and effortlessly. I hear the notes after the second high A4 (“things that we’ll regret”) in Silver Tongues as briefly flat— which means that the song’s engineer didn’t autotune Louis perfectly (whether by choice or by accident). It gives the track a more spontaneous / livelier sound.

The same A4 in Bigger Than Me (the chorus) is much more challenging to sing and more sustained, since he sings it for much of the song. Consequently, Louis has taken it down 1/2 step in live performances, singing a G#4. He nails this note in live performances easily.

For Walls studio recording, Louis has sung higher falsettos, but his 1D chest voice often went to B4, even live. I don’t think he tries to reach this note live in concert anymore, and he doesn’t often do a falsetto either.

For the belted voice, however, Louis still has a brilliant, breathtaking tone. It isn’t as crystal clean and pure as it used to be— smoking, alcohol, and age have added a raspy, gruff edge. But his voice is uniquely his, with higher harmonics than most tenors so that it sounds almost like an alto voice.
