Third Eye Blind - Say It lyrics
[Third Eye Blind - Say It lyrics]
If I tell you what I really want
You just say shut up
You don't really want to hear it, no
I try to be resolute
You reduce it down to cute
I tell you you're a coward
You say I'm a prostitute
When the mascara's dried
I know you've got something to hide
Can't you just say it, say it, say it
Say it one time speak your mind, ooh
Say it, say it, say it
Always show up with someone else
What's it like when you're yourself?
I'll tell you what I want
But I keep it kind of cryptic
I'm a zoetrope cipher on the
Tip of a triptych tell you what you want
Tell you what I need
But I'll hate you if you miss it
I'd like to take a stranger’s
Face in my hands
And kiss the taste of nowhere to hide
Yeah, the taste of nowhere to hide
I want you to say it, say it, say it
Say it one time speak your mind, ooh
Say it, say it, say it
Here comes the breakdown
What's it like when there's no one else?
Say it, say it, say it, what's going on here
I swear you'll disappear if you don't
Say it, say it, say it
Take it down now to the car
We'll speak no more
You're just a cheap lout
You're just an escape route
But, you know, you know, you know
It makes me try again
What's the matter with you?
Or the tunes you wanna do you
Won't let anyone get near
Is it the critics you fear?
Blast them all and cut off your ear
And keep it all in your head
A requiem when you're dead that
No one else can hear
Nothing you write will ever match this
You should go back to that actress
Or the days when you lived on a mattress
When everything was new
So live inside a curse
Or make a gift to the universe and let it go
I miss seeing you at the show
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
You just say shut up
You don't really want to hear it, no
I try to be resolute
You reduce it down to cute
I tell you you're a coward
You say I'm a prostitute
When the mascara's dried
I know you've got something to hide
Can't you just say it, say it, say it
Say it one time speak your mind, ooh
Say it, say it, say it
Always show up with someone else
What's it like when you're yourself?
I'll tell you what I want
But I keep it kind of cryptic
I'm a zoetrope cipher on the
Tip of a triptych tell you what you want
Tell you what I need
But I'll hate you if you miss it
I'd like to take a stranger’s
Face in my hands
And kiss the taste of nowhere to hide
Yeah, the taste of nowhere to hide
I want you to say it, say it, say it
Say it one time speak your mind, ooh
Say it, say it, say it
Here comes the breakdown
What's it like when there's no one else?
Say it, say it, say it, what's going on here

Say it, say it, say it

Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
Say what you mean (Say it, say it, say it)
