Say Nothing Lyrics

[Verse 1]
With you by my side
I felt like I'd arrived
I was lost and found
I feel kinda selfish
And selfish is helpless
I dragged you down
We somehow delayed it
I played it so basic we fooled our crowd
So nice on the surface
But somehow we burnt it
Now words don't mean a thing

[Hook]
You don't have to say nothing
Say nothing
Cause your eyes do the talking
You don't have to say nothing
Say nothing
Cause your eyes do the talking

[Verse 2]
I get home at half five
We fight til the sunrise
We won't back down
The subjects worth hiding
It's high stakes we're riding
It all falls down
Twice strikes the lightning
The night had me high under its dark spell
Now I fight back, you fight back
Won't wave your white flag
Our words don't mean a thing
[Bridge]
Don't speak
Don't speak no more
Cause your eyes do the talking
Don't speak
Don't speak no more
Cause your eyes do the talking

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Let's talk
We used to have our eggs sunny side up
But the fun dried up
And now I feel like our time's up
I can see you wanna talk but your tongues tied up
Gotta wise up
Can't keep hiding, can't keep sliding
Down that one way road to oblivion
I've told you a million times where my heads at
But it's all arguments and who's winning them
Sometimes the right words don't surface
Shut up pretend it's all perfect
Brain short circuits so
I look into your eyes and I don't feel worthless

What I said you know I never meant it
Like somebody keeps finishing my sentence
No more tears, no more lies
I know what you want when you say it with your eyes
[Bridge]

[Hook]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
