DONT TALK ABOUT IT

Don't ask me how I'm doing, I'm gonna lie to you
I feel the need to please my people, it's just what I do
So dry your tears, I always got you, ain't as bad as it seems
I can't imagine if I lost you, you mean too much to me

I'm writing paragraphs to beg you not to end it all tonight
'Cause I know that you would always do the same for me, right?
If the roles are reversed, then I was fading away
You'd take my 13 reasons why, give me a million to stay

What do you mean you can't talk right now?
I knew I was a burden
No one wants to talk to me when I'm really hurtin'
And this is why I lie, why I smile and fake it all
And broken isn't hot to you, depression's a turn-off

So turn it off, pretend again, that everything's okay
Save the mental breakdown, save the tears, ignore the pain
Wait 'til you're alone, so no one sees you at your worst
'Cause the more you open up, the more it fuckin' hurts

Every time I open up, I know what you say (don't talk about it)
It's like you're so far gone, you think I'm insane (don't talk)
You said, "Be honest", and you just walked away (don't talk about it)
No matter what I do, it's always the same (don't talk)

Wake up, wake up
Save up, save up
Just play the part, don't talk
It's the middle, miserable, dystopia
Don't talk about it (talk about it)
Don't talk about it
(Don't talk)

I give everything I have, and it's still not enough
That's why the only thing left in me, is just giving up
You say, "Hang in there, baby" it sounds so easy and basic
I don't need your two cents, maybe you should save it

Takin' too much credit for all your little clichés
You don't know what's in my head or why I numb my pain away
You don't care either, what else is new?
I don't need you to be fake, I needed someone to talk to

Every time I open up, I know what you say (don't talk about it)
It's like you're so far gone, you think I'm insane (don't talk)
You said, "Be honest", and you just walked away (don't talk about it)
No matter what I do, it's always the same (don't talk)

Wake up, wake up
Save up, save up
Just play the part, don't talk
It's the middle, miserable, dystopia
Don't talk about it (talk about it)

Wake up, wake up
Save up, save up
Just play the part, don't talk
It's the middle, miserable, dystopia
Don't talk about it
