SHUT UP
"Shut up," you say
And I'm inclined to do the same
The hour grows late
And we're too old now anyway
The jokes became
Less funny every day
The price we pay
Is too high, it's too high
And all those words just fade away
Until nothing's left
There's nothing there to fill the space
So you just say
To shut up
Shut Up
"Get out," you say
But I'm afraid to walk away
Because out there
I know that everything has changed
But if I stay
My losses bury all I gain
I'm getting high off all the pain
Cast in shadows and thrown away
All all my smiles melt to shape
My plastic face
All me regrets give in to hate
To hear you say
To shut up
Shut up
