Don't Say a Word Lyrics
If you'd never said anything
If you'd never said anything
If you never, If you never
If you never, If you'd never said anything
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Here it is in my hands
In my veins, and overlands
It spreads like fire, seeking air
To pull me in, my own funfair
Won't you come, won't you come
Won't you come, just don't say a word
Won't you come, won't you come
Won't you come, just don't say a word
If you never, if you never
Just hold sway away
If you never, if you never
Just hold sway away
I'm more alive I've ever been
So now I give you all my sins
I've chosen you, I've chosen you
But don't say a word
And if I save us, and I fall down
I will leave your words behind now
If you never, held me under, if you never hear my thunder
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Just don't say a word
If you'd never said anything
If you never, If you never
If you never, If you'd never said anything
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
In my veins, and overlands
It spreads like fire, seeking air
To pull me in, my own funfair
Won't you come, won't you come
Won't you come, just don't say a word
Won't you come, won't you come
Won't you come, just don't say a word
Just hold sway away
If you never, if you never
Just hold sway away
So now I give you all my sins
I've chosen you, I've chosen you
But don't say a word
I will leave your words behind now
If you never, held me under, if you never hear my thunder
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Ohhhh
If you never, if you never
Just don't say a word

Ellie said in an interview that she and her producer talked about life and had discussions about what happens after you die.,in this song it's about that and i think that it is about her succes and fame too.,that she has it in her hands and that she has chosen him to work with her., i don't know if that is true but it's my interpretation of it., 'Here it is in my hands In my veins, and overlands It spreads like fire, seeking air'
I don't think its about Death at all.
I don't think its about Death at all.
It's another song about losing love.

"And if I save us, and I fall down I will leave your words behind now If you never, held me under, if you never hear my thunder"
"And if I save us, and I fall down I will leave your words behind now If you never, held me under, if you never hear my thunder"
I hear if I go and put the effort into saving us and you fuck it up I will leave you behind eating your words.
I hear if I go and put the effort into saving us and you fuck it up I will leave you behind eating your words.
The lyrics are very confusing and misleading. But I think the "Word" she doesn't want him to say is about breaking up. "Just don't say a word" meaning she does not want the relationship to end. "I've chosen you, but don't say a word" pretty much explains that. I'm not certain if that's accurate it's just my interpretation.
