Some undecidable expressions are only undecidable because

 Being self-contradictory is a semantic property. Being uncdecidable is
independent of any semantics.

Not it is not. When an expression is neither true nor false
that makes it neither provable nor refutable. As Richard
Montague so aptly showed Semantics can be specified syntactically.

An arithmetic sentence is always about
numbers, not about sentences.

So when Gödel tried to show it could be about provability
he was wrong before he even started?

 A proof is about sentences, not about
numbers.
 

The Liar Paradox: "This sentence is not true"

 cannot be said in the language of Peano arithmetic.
 

Since Tarski anchored his whole undefinability theorem in a self-contradictory sentence he only really showed that sentences that
are neither true nor false cannot be proven true.
