Say It Lyrics

It's all about steam
It's all about dreams
It's all about making the best out of everything
You'll know when your fine
Cause you'll talk like a mime

And you fall on your face
You get back up, man you're doing fine
"a considerate clown, a preachy preaching machine"
Is one of the sweetest things you would say about me
But I don't have the time for your distorted esteem
Why are you toying with my mind?

I don't wanna hear you say (x8) it
I don't wanna hear you say (x6) it
I don't wanna hear you say (x8) it
Now you're messing with my pride

Look, you think you're smarter than me
Well everyone knows you will never be smarter than me
That's how it goes
I gained forty pounds because of you
Was there an "S" on my chest?

Well I confess, you were too much stress
I'd have a heart attack at best
So now I breathe it out, I breathe it out
And I spit it on the crowd
Cause they lift me up, they lift me up, they lift me up

When I'm feeling down
What am I spitting out? spitting out, something we never talk about
It's called my MIND

I don't wanna hear you say (x8) it
I don't wanna hear you say (x6) it
I don't wanna hear you say (x8) it
Now you're messing with my pride

I'm sick of standing in your line
So now you'll have to take it
take this to heart
I will never let you fuck me over
Stop talking down to me your war is old
your game is over
So here's my coldest shoulder

I don't wanna hear you say (x8) it
I don't wanna hear you say (x6) it
I don't wanna hear you say (x8) it
Now you're messing with my pride

My pride
Something we don't talk about
Something we never talk about

I think it means...

Hes with this girl right but theyre not talking she doesnt text him back and its like this girl has worse problems than he does but he hopes for the best and just wants whats good but shes flakin on him then he is getting frustrated and stressed... by breathing it out it means he talking to other people about his issues and spittin out his anger but its ok they dont know her

but he really likes her and she makes him happier even though he has so much sadness. but it feels like she doesnt care whats on his mind i dont want to hear you say it i dont want you to say its over but you are cold im getting impatient im not gona wait for you to break it off your chance is up and i cant take it its messing with his mind

i think it may be about drugs or some kind of eating disorder caused to him by the bad behaviour of someone who was really special to him...
