Don't Tell Me
Medz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I keep thinking to myself maybe things will change
But you don′t show it if I'm really being honest
I hate that I feel like I′m just a second option
I gave you eighty long months and all I have
Is some paranoid thoughts I can't look past

So don't tell me things like you still love me, trust me
′Cause we both know
You never came close

So don′t tell me things like you still love me
Baby, 'cause we both know
You never came close, umm

I can′t be the one to tell you to flip the page
I thought you loved me 'cause you knew that I was solid
But you controlled the very thing I ever wanted
I gave you eighty long months and all I have
Is some paranoid thoughts I can′t look past

So don't tell me things like you still love me, trust me
′Cause we both know
You never came close
So don't tell me things like you still love me
Baby, 'cause we both know
You never came close, umm





(So don′t tell me things like you still love me)
(So don′t tell me things like you still love me)

Overall Meaning

In the song "Don't Tell Me" by Medz, he expresses his frustration and sadness towards a relationship that he invested a lot of time into, but ultimately never received the love and commitment he craved. He opens the song by admitting that he still has hopes that things may change, but deep down, he knows that his partner doesn't reciprocate his feelings. He feels like he is just a second option and that his significant other doesn't show him the love that he deserves. He mentions that he gave his partner 80 months (which is about 6 and a half years) of his life, and yet, all he has in return are paranoid thoughts that he can't shake off.


As the song progresses, he questions his partner's love for him and their relationship. He can't bring himself to move on from it, but he also can't continue to tolerate the uncertainty and disappointment. He refuses to believe any declarations of love or affection from his partner because he knows that deep down they don't feel the same way. He doesn't want to be led on or deceived anymore and just wants his partner to be honest with him about their feelings.


Overall, the song conveys the pain and frustration of being in an unrequited love situation. Medz is honest and raw in his lyrics, explaining all his thoughts and emotions towards his partner. He doesn't hold back and expresses his vulnerability and hurt.
