Unspoken
♡ Hurts Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I think we'll never change
And our hearts will always separate.
Forget about you
I'll forget about you.
The things we never say
Are better often left alone.
Forget about you
I'll forget about this time.

But it's the same old situation
We made it through this far. Oh.
We watched the rockets kiss the sky.
I saw the flames burn out in your eyes.

Nothing that I do
Will ever be enough for you
Whatever I do, whatever I do.
Take me as I am
I'll never be the other man.
Forget about you
I'll forget about this time.

So won't you save this conversation
And find a better time? Oh, oh.
Don't you ever understand
That if it hurts I'll do whatever I can?

And if it's set in motion
I'll watch it all pass by.
And leave the rest unspoken
I'll never change my mind.

Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken,
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now.
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now.
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now.
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now.

So just let me go
I won't change my mind.
I'd rather be lonely
Than be by your side.
And nothing you say




Could save us this time.
I'd rather be lonely

Line by Line Meaning

I think we'll never change
I don't see us evolving in any way


And our hearts will always separate.
We will never truly connect emotionally


Forget about you
I will try to put you out of my mind


I'll forget about you.
I will do my best to forget all about you


The things we never say
Our thoughts and feelings left unspoken


Are better often left alone.
It's best to not bring up those unspoken things


But it's the same old situation
We always end up in this same place


We made it through this far. Oh.
Despite the difficulties, we have come this far


We watched the rockets kiss the sky.
We have shared moments of awe and wonder


I saw the flames burn out in your eyes.
Your passion for me has faded away


Nothing that I do
Regardless of my actions


Will ever be enough for you
You always want more from me


Whatever I do, whatever I do.
No matter what, it's never enough


Take me as I am
Accept me for who I am


I'll never be the other man.
I won't betray someone else for you


So won't you save this conversation
Let's not have this discussion now


And find a better time? Oh, oh.
Let's talk about this later, when things are calmer


Don't you ever understand
Why can't you see


That if it hurts I'll do whatever I can?
I'm willing to make sacrifices to make things work


And if it's set in motion
If this is the path we are on


I'll watch it all pass by.
I'll let it all happen without interfering


And leave the rest unspoken
I won't say anything more


I'll never change my mind.
I'm firm in my decision


Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken,
Let's not talk about it


Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now.
Let's leave it unspoken right now


So just let me go
Allow me to move on


I won't change my mind.
I'm sure about this decision


I'd rather be lonely
I prefer being alone


Than be by your side.
Than be with you and feel alone


And nothing you say
Regardless of what you tell me


Could save us this time.
It's too late for us to be saved

Laying in the silence
Waiting for the sirens
Signs, any signs I'm alive still
I don't wanna lose it
But I'm not getting through this
Hey, should I pray? Should I pray, yeah
To myself? To a God?
To a savior who can
Unbreak the broken
Unsay these spoken words
Find hope in the hopeless
Pull me out of the train wreck
Unburn the ashes
Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet
Pull me out of the train wreck
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out, ah
Pull me out, pull me out
Underneath our bad blood
We've still got a sanctum, home
Still a home, still a home here
It's not too late to build it back
'Cause a one-in-a-million chance
Is still a chance, still a chance
And I would take those odds
Unbreak the broken
Unsay these spoken words
Find hope in the hopeless
Pull me out of the train wreck
Unburn the ashes
Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet
Pull me out the train wreck
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out, ah
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
You can say what you like, don't say I wouldn't die for you
I, I'm down on my knees and I need you to be my God
Be my help, be a savior who can
Unbreak the broken
Unsay these reckless words (find hope in the hopeless)
Pull me out of the train wreck
Unburn the ashes
Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet
Pull me out of the train wreck
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out, ah
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
