Though it's getting harder to take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go

And if it hurts when they mention my name, say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm the blame, say you don't owe me, ooooh

Even if it's taking the easy way out, keep it inside of you
Don't give in, don't tell them anything, don't let it, don't let it show

Even though you know it's the wrong thing to say
Say you don't care, say you don't care
Even if you wanna believe there's a way, I won't be there, I won't be there

But if you smile when they mention my name, not ever known you
And if you laugh when they say I'm to blame, not ever owed you, ooooh

Even though you think you've got nothing to hide, keep it inside of you
Don't give in, don't tell them anything, don't let it, don't let it show

(Instrumental break)

Even though you think you've got nothing to hide, keep it inside of you
Don't give in, don't tell them anything, don't let it, don't let it show
