[Verse 1]

Don't talk, I will listen

Don't talk, you keep your distance

I'd rather hear some truth tonight

Than entertain your lies

So take you poison silently

Let me be, let me close my eyes


[Verse 2]

Don't talk, I'll believe it

Don't talk, listen to me instead

I know that if you think of it

Both long enough and hard

The drink you drown your troubles in

Is the trouble you're in now


[Chorus]

Talk, talk, talk about it

You talk as if you care

But when your talk is over

Tilt that bottle in the air

Tossing back more than your share


[Verse 3]

Don't talk, I can guess it

Don't talk, well now you're restless and

You need somewhere to put the blame

For how you feel inside

You'll look for a close and easy mark and

You'll see me as fair game


[Chorus]

Talk, talk, talk about it

You talk as if you care

But when your talk is over

Tilt that bottle in the air

Tossing back more than your share

You talk talk talk about it

You talk as if you care

I'm marking every word and

I can tell this time for sure

Your talk is the finest I have heard


[Verse 4]

So don't talk, I was sleeping

Don't talk, let me go on dreaming

Now your eyes they glow so fiercely

I can tell that you're inspired

By the name that you just chose for me

Now what was it?

Oh, never mind it


[Chorus]

We will talk, talk, talk about this

When your head is clear

I'll discuss this in the morning

But until then

You may talk but i won't hear
