Bend and Break Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With you playin' with my mind took
You out to dinner but you left me
Bahind paid for the pleaseure
But I wasted my time
Cause dawn it girl I thought
That you'd be comin' to mine
Friends are always tellin' me to kick you
Guess what I lied
Now you ain't got it change
Cause I'm in control
I'm grivin' down the highway
And your payin' the toll
You don't have to say you want me
You don't have to sat any tears
You don't have to say you want me
Baby it's alright
Coz honey I don't care
I don't care
All the boys tried to stop me sayin'
That ain't right free to party
Stayin' out all night
I'm gonna run the show
Gonna go buck wild now
I just don't care
I wanna do it with style turned
The other cheek when I had something to say
This is what you wanted
But it round the other way
You always said the cheatin' was never
A crime guess what you weren't
The only one all of the time
Deep in your mind
I see your thought I know
You want me sometime
It hurts but you know
That something are best left unsaid
In Bend and Break's song Don't care, the lyrics seem to tell the story of a person who has realized that their romantic partner is not as committed to the relationship as they thought. The singer seems to be letting the partner go and moving on to live her own life without caring about the partner's feelings. From the lyrics, it appears that the singer has been used and disregarded by the partner, who has not reciprocated her feelings.
In the first verse, the singer expresses frustration with the partner for taking advantage of her emotions. She paid for dinner, but the partner left her behind, indicating that the partner does not care about her feelings. Despite her friends' suggestions to move on, the singer continues to have feelings for the partner, but she comes to the realization that the partner will not change. In the chorus, the singer tells the partner that they do not have to express their feelings because she does not care anymore. She has realized that the relationship is not worth it and has moved on with her life.
In the second verse, the singer highlights her new-found freedom and independence. She disregards what the boys say and decides to run her own life. The singer seems to be letting her hair down and living life to the fullest without any regard for the partner. The singer also mentions that the partner may want her sometime, but it hurts. The line, "sometimes things are best left unsaid," indicates that the singer has decided to move and live her life without the partner, but she still cares about them.

No way I'm gonna crazy
I will not lose my mind
With you playin' with my mind took
When you mess with my head
You out to dinner but you left me
We had dinner, but you abandoned me
Bahind paid for the pleaseure
I paid for what we enjoyed
But I wasted my time
It was pointless
Cause dawn it girl I thought That you'd be comin' to mine
I expected you to come
Friends are always tellin' me to kick you Aside
My friends tell me to let you go
I swear I thought that world of you Guess what I lied
I didn't mean what I said
Now you ain't got it change Cause I'm in control
I'm in charge now; you can't change that
I'm grivin' down the highway And your payin' the toll
While I drive, you're the one paying the toll
You don't have to say you want me
You don't need to confess your feelings
You don't have to sat any tears
Don't bother crying for me
Baby it's alright
Everything is okay
Coz honey I don't care
Because I don't care
All the boys tried to stop me sayin'
My male friends tried to convince me
That ain't right free to party Stayin' out all night
Party all night long without worries
I'm gonna run the show Gonna go buck wild now
I'm taking the lead; I'm going wild
I just don't care
I have no concerns
I wanna do it with style turned
I want to do it in a fancy way
The other cheek when I had something to say
I kept quiet, though I had something to say
This is what you wanted But it round the other way
You did not get what you desired; the opposite happened
You always said the cheatin' was never A crime guess what you weren't The only one all of the time
You claimed cheating is not a crime, but you're not the only one who cheats
Deep in your mind I see your thought I know You want me sometime
I sense that you desire me at times
It hurts but you know That something are best left unsaid
It's painful, but some things should remain unsaid
