Say It Third Eye Blind

If I tell you what I really want, you just say shut up
You don't really want to hear it, no
I try to be resolute, you reduce it down to cute
I tell you you're a coward, you say I'm a prostitute
When the mascara's dried
I know you've got something to hide

Can't you just say it, say it, say it, say it one time
Speak your mind, ooh
Say it, say it, say it, always show up with someone else
What's it like when you're yourself?

I'll tell you what I want, but I keep it kind of cryptic
I'm a zoetrope cipher on the tip of a triptych
Tell you what you want
Tell you what I need, but I'll hate you if you miss it
I'd like to take a stranger’s face in my hands and kiss the taste of nowhere to hide
Yeah, the taste of nowhere to hide

I want you to say it, say it, say it, say it one time
Speak your mind, ooh
Say it, say it, say it, here comes the breakdown
What's it like when there's no one else?

Say it, say it, say it, what's going on here
I swear you'll disappear if you don't
Say it, say it, say it, take it down now to the car
We'll speak no more
