Don't Say You Love Me
Alee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You tell me you’ll keep me locked away
Where no one else can break me
Simple stories with hidden words
Truthful tales and little white lies
Bet you’re glad you didn’t see me cry
Don’t say you need me
Don’t say these tears that I’m crying are just make believe
Don’t say you feel bad
Don’t say you’re sorry
Don’t say that someday, someday you’ll see
Don’t say I love you
Now you’re coming back and telling me
All those lies you said were just to keep from hurting me
You’ve made a choice that can’t be turned around
A now this carnival ride is slowing down
Don’t say you love me
Don’t say you need me
Don’t say these tears that I’m crying are just make believe
Don’t say you feel bad
Don’t say you’re sorry
Don’t say that someday, someday you’ll see
Don’t say I love you
Bet you’re glad you didn’t see me cry
Bet you’re glad you didn’t see me cry
Don’t say you love me
Don’t say you need me
Don’t say these tears that I’m crying are just make believe
Don’t say you feel bad
Don’t say you’re sorry
Don’t say that someday, someday you’ll see
Don’t say I love you
Don’t Say I love you
I love you
I love you
Don’t Say I love you
In "Don't Say You Love Me," Alee sings with a melancholic yet hopeful tone about a past relationship that has ended with her heartbroken. The song begins with her ex telling her to take his hand and promising to protect her from being hurt again by locking her away, away from anyone else who may hurt her. However, the chorus is where Alee begs him not to say the words that made her fall in love with him in the first place - "Don't say you love me, don't say you need me." She pleads with him not to try and come back into her life and cause more pain for her, telling him, "Don't say these tears that I'm crying are just make believe, don't say you feel bad, don't say you're sorry, don't say that someday, someday you'll see." She doesn't want to hear any empty promises or excuses; she wants him to just let her heal and move on.
Alee's lyrics embody the feelings of someone who has been hurt and is scared to let themselves be vulnerable again. She sings about the little white lies and hidden words that were told to her before, suggesting that she no longer wants to be fooled by ambiguous language. She wants to know the truth, even if it hurts. The song's slowed-down, emotional melody combined with Alee's powerful vocals conveys the raw emotions of heartbreak and the struggle to let go of someone who was once important.
Overall, "Don't Say You Love Me" is a song about learning to break free from a toxic relationship and finding the strength to move on. Alee encourages listeners to prioritize their own healing and to resist being drawn back in by an ex who may not have their best interests at heart.
