I never needed you to be strong
I never needed you for pointing out my wrongs
I never needed pain, I never needed strain
My love for you was strong enough, you should have known
I never needed you for judgement
I never needed you to question what I spent
I never asked for help, I take care of myself
I don't know why you think you got a hold on me
And it's a little late for conversations
There isn't anything for you to say
And my eyes hurt, hands shiver
So look at me and listen to me because
I don't want to stay another minute
I don't want you to say a single word
Hush, hush, hush, hush
There is no other way
I get the final say because
I don't want to do these any longer
I don't want you, there's nothing left to say
Hush, hush, hush, hush
I've already spoken
Our love is broken
Baby, hush hush
I never needed your corrections
On everything from how I act to what I say
I never needed words, I never needed hurt
I never needed you to be there everyday
I'm sorry for the way I let go
Of everything I wanted when you came along
But I am never beaten, broken not defeated
I know next to you is not where I belong
And it's a little late for explanations
There isn't anything that you can do
And my eyes hurt, hands shiver
So you will listen when I say, baby
I don't want to stay another minute
I don't want you to say a single word
Hush, hush, hush, hush
There is no other way
I get the final say because
I don't want to do these any longer
I don't want you, there's nothing left to say
Hush, hush, hush, hush
I've already spoken
Our love is broken
Baby, hush hush
At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinkin' that I could never live
Without you by my side
But I spent, oh, so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
But I grew strong
I learned how to get carry on
Hush, hush, hush, hush
I've already spoken
Our love is broken, baby
Oh no, not I
I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
But I'll survive
I will survive, hey, hey
Hush, hush, hush, hush
There is no other way
I get the final say
I don't want to do this any longer
I don't want you, there's nothing left to say
Hush hush, hush hush
I've already spoken
Our love is broken
Baby, hush hush
