Better Left Unsaid
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some things are better left unsaid
Didn't want to know but I asked you anyway
The picture is now stuck in my head
Like an accident and I cannot look away
Why did I ask? Why'd you agree?
(And let me plant the seed)
Now I feel it grow, growing in me
(Oh, the curiosity)
Should've known that nothing good would come of it
Dig up the past and all that we're gonna get is dirty
Could not resist, I must uncover all that I have discovered
'Cause it's hurting me
Some things are better left unsaid
Didn't want to know but I asked you anyway
The picture is now stuck in my head
Like an accident and I cannot look away
(Some things are better left unsaid
I can't look away
Some things are better left unsaid)
What did I think I would hear?
What did I think it would be?
('Cause secrets are to keep)
I knew it wouldn't feel good and still that couldn't stop me
(And now it's all that I can see)
I can pretend that I don't understand what you're saying
Everything's fine 'cause I wasn't paying attention
But with every second I think about it I wonder if there's something else that you failed to mention
Some things are better left unsaid
Didn't want to know but I asked you anyway
The picture is now stuck in my head
Like an accident and I cannot look away
(Some things are better left unsaid
I can't look away
Some things are better left unsaid)
My ignorance was perfectly bliss
Till your wrecking ball words hit hard
Thourgh my house of cards
Now anything feels better than this
