I Don't Wanna Hear It
Hidden in Plain View Lyrics

There's a common misbelief that I believe everything you say,
People assume that I trust everything you tell me, but that's not true.

In spineless calculations in the plans that we made.
Our plans were made without a backbone, lacking the bravery to stand up for what we believed.

Well, talk is cheap when you're flat broke, so you claim.
You say that you can't afford to do what you're telling me to do, so your words are meaningless.

So I don't know the call but we fell.
I'm not sure who is to blame, but we ended up failing.

I am a foolish man,
I made a mistake or was naive in the situation.

I am afraid that that you have burned this bridge.
I fear that you have destroyed our relationship beyond repair.

I'm done, I don't wanna hear it.
I'm finished listening to what you have to say.

I don't want to know for sure what is real anymore.
I don't want to continue questioning the truth and always doubting what I'm told.

A straight faced lie, say it to my face.
You're lying to me without flinching or hesitation, but at least have the courage to tell me in person.

Look me in the eyes.
Make eye contact with me as you deliver your message, don't avoid it by looking away.

Just say it to my face.
Have the courage to say what you're thinking directly to me, and don't hide behind others.

Oh, so before I go,
Before I leave or give up on this relationship,

I lose my faith in principle, in principle.
I've lost my belief in the moral standards and ethics that govern our actions.

We're drowning either way.
We're both struggling to stay afloat in this situation, and we're heading towards a bad outcome regardless.

(So back off, so back down to basics now)
(Let's simplify things and start from scratch)

(We're live and learn somehow)
(We'll make mistakes and learn from them as we go)

(When the truth comes out sooner or later)
(Eventually, the truth will be revealed)

But I'm already gone
But I've already emotionally or physically distanced myself from this situation.
