[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from

A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1]
Oh, pity me
I’m so alone and so blue
My friends have all gone away
Their friendliness too
[Pre-Chorus]
It was I on my own
With no need to belong
And I wanted to die
That’s when …
[Verse 1]
Got some money, got some cash
I’m rich and now I’m sad
And I wonder if I’m sad about the money that I have

Lately you’ve been quiet
Is there something on your mind, baby?1
The suspense is killing me
So much that it’s driving me crazy2
The three words in your head3
Drift ahead like they’re gonna come save me4
Oh, lately you’ve been quiet
Is there something on your mind, baby?
Baby, if you wanna say something, say it now
Cause I ain’t got the time to be waiting around5
Come on, tell me what you’re feeling, use your mouth6
If you wanna say something, say it now
You’ve been going out
Without doubt, what’s going on baby?7
I can see it in your eyes
Far behind and it’s driving me crazy8
Just tell me where you go
Cause I really need to know, please tell me9
I’m so tired every day
Listening to the little that you’re saying (that you say to me)10
Baby, if you wanna say something, say it now
Cause I ain’t got the time to be waiting around
Come on, tell me what you’re feeling, use your mouth
If you wanna say something, say it now
Baby, if you wanna say something, say it now
Cause I ain’t got the time to be waiting around
Come on, tell me what you’re feeling, use your mouth
If you wanna say something, say it now
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, say it now11
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, say it now
Oh, say something to me
Say something
Say it now
Waiting around
Use your mouth
Say it now
Baby, if you wanna say something, say it now
Cause I ain’t got the time to be waiting around
Come on, tell me what you’re feeling, use your mouth
If you wanna say something, say it now
Baby, if you wanna say something, say it now
Cause I ain’t got the time to be waiting around
Come on, tell me what you’re feeling, use your mouth
If you wanna say something, say it now
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, say it now
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, come on, tell me
Oh, say it now12
