"I Don't Wanna Know" lyrics

It's late and we're not saying much
You stir your drink, I light one up
Feels like we're stuck in the part
Where no one wants to be the first to go
You laugh at nothing, I smile too wide
We're both pretending it's all fine
But we keep checking the time
Like we're waiting for the goodbye

And I don't know where this ends
But I know we're not giving in
We stay 'cause it's easier than starting again

Don't wanna call this the last time
Don't wanna watch you walk out of my life
We're standing right at the line
And pretending we're fine
You're still here, but you're fading
Can't hold on, I keep hesitating
So if this is over, say it slow
'Cause I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know

There's dishes in the sink, your shoes by the bed
Little things you haven't said
You reach for me like you don't mean it
And I don't flinch, but I feel it
You ask if I'm cold, I say I'm fine
But it's been freezing here all night
I keep my voice low, steady and light
Like I'm not breaking down all the time

And I don't know where this ends
But I know we're not giving in
We stay 'cause it's easier than starting again

Don't wanna call this the last time
Don't wanna watch you walk out of my life
We're standing right at the line
And pretending we're fine
You're still here, but you're fading
Can't hold on, I keep hesitating
So if this is over, say it slow
'Cause I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know

Don't wanna call this the last time
Don't wanna watch you walk out of my life
We're standing right at the line
And pretending we're fine
You're still here, but you're fading
Can't hold on, I keep hesitating
So if this is over, say it slow
'Cause I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know

So if it's over, don't be kind
Don't leave me room to change your mind
Say it like you mean it, say it slow
Or say nothing at all
