Don'T Speak

I'll watch you And you don't have a clue Everything you do Is making sense to me I see you now And wonder how I missed the real you We pushed each other so far down. In just a minute, I can see everything in your heart, Really looking in it. God knows we got off to a bad start. But where's the finish? I'm sorry I Always have to be The first one to talk The first one to blame And everything Doesn't seem like your fault now. I'll try not to shame you This time and maybe It'll be alright... Let's just shut our mouths. What I say is hurting you And what you say is hurting me I don't want to see us going through The same goddamn thing Everyday... Maybe the silence will help us out We probably don't know what we're talking about Anyways... So let's just shut our mouths. My stupid words get in the way You don't know just What to say So let's just shut our mouths...
