lyrics

When I ask you to shush.

I’ve been playing the fool and I followed your rules,
but you just wont let me go.
But you don’t blame yourself say i’ve found someone else,
but I guess you ought to know.

That i’m done with your games, go right back to the days,
when you play some other girls.
You can be by yourself, go on find someone else,
i’ll be someone else’s world.

I’m not tryna break your heart when you’re watching me leave.
But when I try to speak my mind god damn just let me speak.

When I ask you to shush,
I expect you to listen.
Boy who’d you think you’re talking to,
i’m not someone you can just dismissive, like my words mean nothing.
Oh i’m sick and tired of hearing how i’m wrong,
Its time that I get gone.

I know that you’re sorry, i’ve heard it before & it’s noises to my ears.
The sound of you breaking, I cannot take & it’s bringing me to tears.
But i’m not going back, cause I lost who I am and you broke me with your words.
And I tried to make sense but you stuck in yourself so my voice was never heard.

I’m not tryna break your heart when you’re watching me leave.
But when I try to speak my mind god damn just let me speak.

When I ask you to shush,
I expect you to listen.
Boy who’d you think you’re talking to,
I'm not someone you can just dismissive, like my words mean nothing.
Oh i’m sick and tired of hearing how i’m wrong,
Its time that we move on.

Talking ‘bout all the secrets that we keep.
All the things that we’re seeing in our dreams.
When I close my eyes, I don’t see me & you no more.

Talking ‘bout all the secrets that we keep.
All the things that we’re seeing in our dreams.
When I close my eyes, I don’t see me & you no more.

So when I ask you to shush,
I expect you to listen.
Boy who’d you think you’re talking to,
I'm not someone you can just dismissive, like my words mean nothing.
Oh i’m sick and tired of hearing how i’m wrong,
Its time that I get gone.
