Shut Down

Cause I hate myself but I hate you more
And those snide remarks when you slam the door
I can't help you out, if I don't know what you're looking for
I always used to help but not anymore

It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide
It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide

My feelings they, they tear me up
And I try to run but it's like I'm stuck
I can pretend that I don't give a fuck
Try to wish myself the best of luck

It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide
It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide

My luck paid off and I moved on
But I hate myself more now that you're gone
So I shut myself down, turned off from the inside
You didn't know what to say when I found your place to hide

Can You Speak English?

Nothing you say ever makes sense
It's like you're speaking in the future tense
Stuck in the middle, sat on the fence
Focusing in on the cracks and the dents

Cause you're words confuse me, delude me
They drive me insane
Can  you speak English?
Simple and plain
I don't know what's going on
Inside your brain
But I don't understand and
I can't take it today

You told me 'silence is the loudest scream'
I screamed 'I don't know what that fucking means'
You talk as if always in a dream
I guess I'll never know what you mean

Cause your words confuse me, delude me
They drive me insane
Can you speak English?
Simple and plain
I don't know what's going on
Inside your brain
But I don't understand and
I can't take it today

Try to speak with some logic in mind
Don't leave all trail of thought behind
There's a part of you that I'll never find
The accident left that part behind
