Nothing Left To Say
Mint Condition Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The words so strong
At least at the beginning
Who would've thought
There'd ever be an ending
We had it all
But it's like we've run into a wall

Now we try to talk
But just end up fighting
Try making up
But there's just no denying
Jus' ain't the same no more
What are we putting ourselves through all this for

You talk and hear me
But you can't communicate
Cause you're not lis'ning
Know these are two different things
Now I see what it means to have been
Blinded by the one you love so deeply
Cause,

The very things that make me love you
Are the things pushing me away (now)
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before (now)
In tears we stand here
There's nothing left to say

You touch'd my heart
And were so givin'
Spirit so free
You threw me in it
I fell so deep
I could not see my life
Without you in it

Girl you gave me
A lot of attention
Somehow the feeling turned
Into crazy possessive
It was always there
But I didn't look deeper
If I would've I'da seen the limits

You talk and hear me
But you can't communicate
Cause you're not lis'ning
Know these are two different things
Now I see what it means to have been
Blinded by the one you love so deeply

I had my pride girl
And you had your pain
So deep inside you
Wanted to have your say
Irritated, frustrated and hurt
This is so confusing
Girl I though this was the one thing for sure

The very things that make me love you
Are the things pushing me away (now)
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before (now)
In tears we stand here
There's nothing left to say

We should have our words
To try and encourage
Us to find a way
Cause there's nothing left to say

The very things that make me love you
Are the things pushing me away (now)
In tears we stand here
With nothing left to say

And all I could do for you
I should've done before (now)




In tears we stand here
There's nothing left to say

Love was so strong
At least in the beginning
Who would of thought
There'd ever be an ending
We had it all, but its like we've run into a wall
Now we try to talk, but just end up fighting
Try making up, but there is just no denying
Just ain't the same no more
what are we putting ourselves through all this for
You talk and hear me
But yu can't communicate
Cause you're not listening
No, theses are two different things
Now, I see what it means to have been blinded by the one you love so deeply
Cause there are things that made me love yu
All the things shouldn't be your way now
In tears we stand here with nothing left to say
And all I can do for you
I should have done before now
In tears we stand here there's nothing left to say
You touched my heart and were so giving
Spirit so free
You through me in it
I fell so deep
I could not see my life without you in it
Girl you gave me a lot of attention
Some how that feeling turned into crazy possessive
It was always there, but I didn't look deeper
If I would have seen the limit
You talk and hear me
But yu can't communicate
Cause you're not listening
No, these are two different things
Now I see what it means to have been
blinded by the one you love so deeply
I had my pride girl
And you had your pain
So deep inside you
Wanted to have your say
Irritated frustrated and hurt
Baby this is so confusing
Girl I thought this was the real thing for sure
Cause there are things that made me love you
Love you
All things shouldn't be your way now
In tears we stand here with nothing left to say
All I could do for you I should have done before now
