[Intro]
Yeah…
Tell me what this is,
‘Cause I can’t tell anymore.
[Verse 1]
Baby tell me what this is cause I can’t take it anymore,
You always say you’re leaving,
Then you stay, I can’t ignore.
You pull away but then you say “your the one in my brain”
I just don’t what to do, you got me sitting here confused.
I read through your messages,
Looking for hidden clues.
Trying to understand the difference
Between what you say and what you do.
[Pre-Chorus]
One minute you’re all in,
The next you’re pulling away.
You keep on stalling
Tell me, why you playing games?
[Chorus]
‘Cause these mixed signals got me dizzy,
One hand on me, one foot out the door.
You say you want me,
Then you act like you’re not sure.
If you love me, say you love me.
If you don’t, then let me go.
I’m so tired of getting lost
In these mixed signals
That’s in my heart.
[Verse 2]
Everybody sees it but you,
Or maybe you just pretend not to.
You like having me around,
But not enough to break it down.
And I keep on making excuses,
Trying to give you the benefit of doubt.
But a heart can only bend so much
Before it figures things out.
[Pre-Chorus]
One minute you’re all in,
The next you’re pulling away.
You keep on stalling
Please tell me, why you playing games?
[Chorus 2]
‘Cause these mixed signals got me dizzy,
One hand on me, one foot out the door.
You say you want me,
Then you act like you’re not sure.
If you love me, say you love me.
If you don’t, then let me go.
I’m so tired of getting lost
In these mixed signals
That’s in my heart.
[Bridge]
Maybe the answer’s in your silence,
Maybe I’ve known all along.
Someone who’s scared to choose me
Was never where I belonged.
[Final Chorus]
These mixed signals got me dizzy,
But I’m finally seeing clear.
I deserve somebody certain,
Not somebody who’s half here.
If you love me, say you love me.
If you don’t, let me go.
I’m so done getting lost
In your mixed signals,
That’s not my heart.
[Outro]
Hot and cold,
Yes and no,
Stay or leave,
I don’t know.
Hot and cold,
Yes and no,
Boy, you’re nothing but
Mixed signals.
[Repeat with harmonies fading out.]
