"TalkTalk" lyrics

"TalkTalk"

You're waiting on miracles
We're bleeding out
Thoughts and prayers
Adorable (Crisis)
Like cake in a crisis
We're bleeding out
While you deliberate
Bodies accumulate

Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walking like Jesus
Sit and talk like Jesus
Talk like Jesus
Talk, talk, talk, talk
Get the fuck out of my way

Don't be the problem, be the solution
Don't be the problem, be the solution
Don't be the problem, be the solution
Problem, problem, problem, problem

Faith without works is
Talk without works is
Faith without works is
Dead, dead, dead, dead

Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walking like Jesus
Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walking like Jesus

Try braving the rain
Try lifting the stone
Try extending a hand
Try walking your talk or get the fuck out of my way

"TalkTalk" is the third single from the album. The song was released on the 5th of February 2018.
The song started initially as a musical idea written by band guitarist Billy Howerdel. He showed a demo of it to band frontman Maynard James Keenan in hope he would write lyrics for it. Keenan said about it, "That one went through a lot of incarnations. It sounded a certain way when I first heard it, but I didn't really hear anything in it. Then Dave and Billy striped some things down, changed tempos and time signatures and I went, 'Oh, there it is,' and latched on."
The music video for "TalkTalk" shows a pulsing multi-coloured octopus in somebody's hands for the whole song.
This song reached number 17 on the US Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart.
