  • With you by my side
    I felt like I'd arrived
    I was lost and found
    I feel kinda selfish
    And selfish is helpless
    I dragged you down

    We somehow delayed it
    I played it so basic we fooled our crowd
    So nice on the surface
    But somehow we burnt it
    Now words don't mean a thing

    You don't have to say nothing
    Say nothing
    'Cause your eyes do the talking
    You don't have to say nothing
    Say nothing
    'Cause your eyes do the talking

    I get home at half five
    We fight til the sunrise
    We won't back down
    The subjects worth hiding
    It's high stakes we're riding
    It all falls down

    Twice strikes the lightning
    The night had me high under its dark spell
    Now I fight back, you fight back
    Won't wave your white flag
    Our words don't mean a thing

    Don't speak
    Don't speak no more
    'Cause your eyes do the talking
    Don't speak
    Don't speak no more
    'Cause your eyes do the talking

    You don't have to say nothing
    Say nothing
    'Cause your eyes do the talking
    You don't have to say nothing
    Say nothing
    'Cause your eyes do the talking

    (Let's talk)
    We used to have our eggs sunny side up
    But the fun dried up
    And now I feel like our time's up
    I can see you wanna talk but your tongues tied up
    Gotta wise up
    Cant keep hiding, cant keep sliding
    Down that one way road to oblivion
    I've told you a million times where my heads at
    But it's all arguments and who's winning em
    Sometimes the right words don't surface
    Shut up pretend it's all perfect
    Brain short circuits so
    I look into your eyes and I don't feel worthless
    What I said you know I never meant it
    Like somebody keeps finishing my sentence
    No more tears, no more lies
    I know what you want when you say it with your eyes

    Don't speak
    Don't speak no more
    'Cause your eyes do the talking
    Don't speak
    Don't speak no more
    'Cause your eyes do the talking

    You don't have to say nothing
    Say nothing
    'Cause your eyes do the talking
    You don't have to say nothing
    Say nothing
    'Cause your eyes do the talking Writer/s: DRAGAN ROGANOVIC, ELLIOT JOHN GLEAVE, JOHNNY MCDAID
