lyrics

DON'T SAY A WORD

Don't say a word
Cause I'll just pretend that I never heard
Everything's been said and it's all absurd
There's nothing else to know

It was never this clear
the last time I came here
25 dead umbrellas on my way to your place
No one else here can seem to accept
There are times when you simply get wet

Don't give me your regards
Never send Christmas cards
There's a long list of topics we're supposed to avoid
Other things we don't need to explain
Getting good at not using his name

Everybody needs someone to tell
all the little things on their mind
But for the bigger things that don't have names
you just want someone to hide behind

Don't say a word
Cause I'll just pretend that I never heard
Everything's been said and it's all absurd
There's nothing else to know
and nowhere else to go

Everybody tries to do what's right
Everybody tells little lies
He makes you crazy and I make you sad
But we'll never make you satisfied
