Say the Things (You Want) Lyrics
These are the word I will say
This is the story I'll tell
When I speak your name
You'll probably like it yourself
That's what I never could take
You wanted me when and you wont admit
and the rest was just a waste of your time
I'll say the words that you want
I though that you love me but you don't, you don't
And now its two become three
If you're hurting I can't see
And you're taking whats left of me
For what its worth I believed
Every word that you said
So here is what I will say
With these last wasted breaths
Take take take take
Back your promises and your sweet kisses
That I though were only for me
To find myself at the end
of these lines that you're selling
It's telling
I would have always gave in
But those late nights and phone calls
Whispering everything I'd ever want
For what its worth I believed
Every word that you said
So here is what I will say
With these last wasted breaths
Take take take take
Back your promises and your sweet kisses
That I though were only for me
You took
My heart out
Of me
I though you love me but you don't 'cause
You took
My heart out
of me
I waited for
You to answer why
But waiting is not
This is the story I'll tell
You wanted me when and you wont admit
For what its worth I believed
Every word that you said
So here is what I will say
With these last wasted breaths
Take take take take
Back your promises and your sweet kisses
That I though were only for me
This is the story I'll tell
When I speak your name
You'll probably like it yourself
You wanted me when and you wont admit
and the rest was just a waste of your time
I though that you love me but you don't, you don't
And now its two become three
If you're hurting I can't see
And you're taking whats left of me
Every word that you said
So here is what I will say
With these last wasted breaths
Take take take take
Back your promises and your sweet kisses
That I though were only for me
of these lines that you're selling
It's telling
But those late nights and phone calls
Whispering everything I'd ever want
Every word that you said
So here is what I will say
With these last wasted breaths
Take take take take
Back your promises and your sweet kisses
That I though were only for me
My heart out
Of me
I though you love me but you don't 'cause
You took
My heart out
of me
I waited for
You to answer why
But waiting is not
You wanted me when and you wont admit
Every word that you said
So here is what I will say
With these last wasted breaths
Take take take take
Back your promises and your sweet kisses
That I though were only for me

I don't have the actual lyrics or anything, but I keep hearing:
"You wanted me when you wanted me", not "and you won't admit", but I'm not 100% sure.
yeah, that's right
yeah, that's right
I keep hearing "you wanted me when you wanted me" too. Anyways, this song is pretty straightforward for an Emery song. It is about a girl who has manipulated a guy in a relationship, taking advantage of him and leading him on.
"I would have always gave in But those late nights and phone calls Whispering everything I'd ever want
For what its worth I believed Every word that you said So here is what I will say With these last wasted breaths Take take take take Back your promises and your sweet kisses That I though were only for me"
Pretty straightforward. She cheated on him and he became hurt and angry, and the song leaves the listener with that.
"for what its worth I believed Every word that you said So here is what I will say With these last wasted breaths Take take take take Back your promises and your sweet kisses That I though were only for me "
Yeah, I think there are some mistakes. I always hear "you wanted me when you wanted me". An also "I thought you'd love me but you don't". I think it's basically about this love not being what he expected, or what the girl promised. They seem to sing about that a lot. They are a christian band, so you could possibly delve a little deeper with this being about sin. How it promises the world and then leaves you alone in the dark. At least that's another meaning I get when i listen to it. I just love their music as well, it's so unlike other bands which is rare these days.
