Hush Hush Lyrics

I've been watching while you sleep, baby.
Hoping i'm the only one that frequents your dreams (dreams)

I can't take another breath without feeling the regrets
of my jealousy
horrified that you might have really lied
tell me is it a possibility
overwhelming proof that you're nothing but a fake.

i've seen those hush hush looks you give
when you're talking to him
I've heard your undercover tone of voice
the one you use for all the boys
i've been nonchalant about the calls at 2 a.m.
but do you really think that i would believe it was just your mother again

I can't take another breath without feeling the regrets
of my jealousy
horrified that you might have really lied
tell me is it a possibility
overwhelming proof that you're nothing but a fake

i've seen those hush hush looks you give
when you're talking to him
I've heard your undercover tone of voice
the one you use for all the boys

i've witnessed all your sneaking around
in every corner of town
ive listned while you've pretended to cry
defending your hush hush alibi

your heart is charcoal smoking black
why don't you just tie the mattress to your back

i've seen those hush hush looks you give (hush hush)
i've seen those hush hush looks you give when you're talking to him
i've heard your undercover tone of voice the one you use for all the boys

I've been watching while you sleep, baby.
Hoping i'm the only one that frequents your dreams (dreams)

I can't take another breath without feeling the regrets
of my jealousy
horrified that you might have really lied 
tell me is it a possibility
overwhelming proof that you're nothing but a fake.

i've seen those hush hush looks you give 
when you're talking to him
I've heard your undercover tone of voice 
the one you use for all the boys
i've been nonchalant about the calls at 2 a.m.
but do you really think that i would believe it was just your mother again

I can't take another breath without feeling the regrets
of my jealousy
horrified that you might have really lied 
tell me is it a possibility
overwhelming proof that you're nothing but a fake

i've seen those hush hush looks you give 
when you're talking to him
I've heard your undercover tone of voice 
the one you use for all the boys

i've witnessed all your sneaking around
in every corner of town
ive listned while you've pretended to cry
defending your hush hush alibi

your heart is charcoal smoking black
why don't you just tie the mattress to your back

i've seen those hush hush looks you give (hush hush)
i've seen those hush hush looks you give when you're talking to him
i've heard your undercover tone of voice the one you use for all the boys

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The lyrics are in a weird format... and a little out of order so...

A guy is jealous of the other guys his g/f is talking to because she's cheating on him...

I'm really excited for this new stuff, this song is great. I agree with sk8rgrl in that a guy knows his girlfriend is sneaking around and is feeling jealous of those other guys because, obviously, his girlfriend would rather be with them than him. And I think his jealousy turns into more of an "I don't give a shit anymore" attitude towards the end, especially with that "your heart is charcoal smoking black, why don't you just tie the mattress to your back" line. What a genius way to call a girl a slut, ha.

This is a great song. I believe that the song is pretty self-explanatory.

He's with a chick and she gets calls from other guys late into the morning. She is always "hush Hush" with her conversations and is playing him for a fool. Great song if you've ever put up with a whore, you can relate.
