Blue October — Say It

It's all about steam, it's all about dreams
It's all about making the best out of everything
You'll know when you're fine, 'cause you'll talk like a mime
You'll fall on your face, you get back up
Man, you're doing fine
A considerate clown, a preachy preaching machine
Is one of the sweetest things you would say about me
But I don't have the time for your distorted esteem
Why are you toying with my... mind?

I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it
I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say it
I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it
Now you're messing with my... pride

Look - you think you're smarter than me
Well, everyone knows
You will never be smarter than me
That's how it goes
I gained forty pounds because of you
Was there an "S" on my chest?
Well I confess you were too much stress
I'd have a heart attack at best
So now I breathe it out, I breathe it out
And I spit it on the crowd
As they lift me up, they lift me up
They lift me up when I'm feeling down
What am I spitting out, spitting out,
Something we never talk about?
It's called my... mind

I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it
I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say it
I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it
Now you're messing with my... pride

Well, I'm sick of standing in your line
So now you'll have to take it
Take this to heart
I will never let you fuck me over
Stop talking down to me
Your war is old, your game is over
So here's my coldest shoulder

I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it
I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say it
I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it
Now you're messing with my... pride
My pride...

Oh... Something we don't talk about!
Something we don't talk about.
