Shut Up Lyrics
You say that you're leaving
but I've heard those words before
And I won't play these games
You say that your reason
is life has got to offer more
And every day's the same
and I do feel offended
Why don't you just say
what you really mean
Or...
[Chorus]
Shut up, you don't love me, baby
Cause if you did, if you did
I would know
Shut up, you don't love me, baby
Cause if you did, if you did
then it would show
Shut up, you don't love me, baby
Cause if you did, if you did
you wouldn't go
The days go by slowly
each more painful than the last
I try to understand
I got my defenses
up so high it's sad, but I
have always had a man
And I guess that it's over
So...
[Chorus]
I saved you, boy
You know I did
I took your crooked life
and I straightened it for you
I held you up so very high
And you can't take back what you said
It's real this time
[Chorus 3x]
but I've heard those words before
And I won't play these games
You say that your reason
is life has got to offer more
And every day's the same
and I do feel offended
Why don't you just say
what you really mean
Or...
Shut up, you don't love me, baby
Cause if you did, if you did
I would know
Shut up, you don't love me, baby
Cause if you did, if you did
then it would show
Shut up, you don't love me, baby
Cause if you did, if you did
you wouldn't go
each more painful than the last
I try to understand
I got my defenses
up so high it's sad, but I
have always had a man
And I guess that it's over
So...
You know I did
I took your crooked life
and I straightened it for you
I held you up so very high
And you can't take back what you said
It's real this time

this song is totally my favorite. I saw Dirtie Blonde as an opening act at a Teddy Geiger concert, and I had to buy their cd b/c of this song. I think just about anyone who's ever been in a relationship that wasn't exactly the best can relate to this song.
This song is so true. Its about saying i love you but not meaning it and a relationship thats ending. I think just about anyone can relate to this song.
