I don't want to talk
'Cause it'll only hurt more
I don't want to bring it up again
'Cause it hurt like hell before
You know me too well
You make my head spin and I'll just say something wrong
You pull me out of my shell and then hate me when I'm done
But if the rain keeps falling and you can't see the tears in my eyes
They say the night is daunting but we all need somewhere to hide
So it could be better if I kept it to myself
Yeah it could be better if I left it on the shelf
Before I go and say something I don't mean
Yeah it could be better if I kept it to myself

Let's wipe the slate clean
And I'll bottle it up again
It's just how I've always been
Even without you
'Cause if the rain starts falling and you start to see the tears in my eyes
And if the night stops calling then we won't have somewhere to hide
So it could be better if I kept it to myself
Yeah it could be better if I left it on the shelf
Before I go and say something I don't mean
Yeah it could be better if I kept it to myself
I'd rather forget than have to forgive
I'd rather lose it, than live with this memory
Don't wanna accept the things that you did
I try not to show it but you know it hurts me
I'd rather forget than have to forgive
I'd rather lose it, than live with this memory
Don't wanna accept the things that you did
'Cause you know it hurts me yeah yeah
Before I go and say something I don't mean
Before I go and say something I don't mean
It could be better if I kept it to myself
Yeah it could be better if I left it on the shelf
Before I go and say something I don't mean
Yeah it could be better if I kept it to myself
