"Don't Say A Word" lyrics

I've got you begging me for more
To take you higher and higher now
With you I'm never sure
And I just don't want to help you out
And I don't want to take the blame
'Cause I don't want to feel the same as they did

Well I hope you're not depending on me
To put you through misery
Well I hope you're not depending on me

Don't say a word if you know you don't mean it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, you can take it or leave it
'Cause I don't need you

And I don't want you looking down on me
Stealing the air I breathe
I hate to say when you're around
But no more, it's gonna stop, stop
You'll be slipping from the top, top
And the more you wanna talk, talk
Is another step to walk, walk right off the edge now

Well I hope you're not depending on me
To put you through misery
Well I hope you're not depending on me

Don't say a word if you know you don't mean it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, you can take it or leave it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, don't pretend that you mean it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, you can take it or leave it
'Cause I don't need you

Finding out that you were part of a game
You never wanted to play
You never wanted to play

Oh, you're just so goddamn clever
Even now you can say that you had her
Even now you can say you fooled her

Don't say a word, don't pretend that you mean it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, you can take it or leave it
'Cause I don't need you

Don't say a word if you know you don't mean it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, you can take it or leave it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, don't pretend that you mean it
'Cause I don't need you
Don't say a word, you can take it or leave it
'Cause I don't need you
