[Intro]
Ooh, oh, yeah
Ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
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've known
I never needed you for judgment
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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 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

[Verse 2]
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 every day
I'm sorry for the way I let go
On everything I wanted when you came along
But I ain't never beatin', broken not defeated
I know next to you is not where I belong

[Pre-Chorus]
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)

[Chorus]
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 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

[Bridge]
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But I spent oh so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
But I grew strong
I learned how to 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 will survive
I will survive! Hey, Hey!
Hush hush, Hush hush
There is no other way
I get the final say

[Outro]
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

The Pussycat Dolls

Initially working as a burlesque troupe, entrepreneur and artist, Robin Antin, founded “The Pussycat Dolls” and turned them into one of the most prominent girl bands of the 2000s. Seven girls–Nicole Scherzinger, Melody Thornton, Ashley Roberts, Carmit Bachar, Jessica Sutta, Kaya Jones and Kimberly Wyatt–were signed in 2003 to Interscope Records. Their debut single “Sway” was released in 2004 to no success.

The group’s debut album PCD was released in 2005 to huge success, becoming top-five hits worldwide including in the UK Album Charts and the Billboard 200 and has sold nine million copies worldwide. It featured the group’s most popular songs such as “Don’t Cha”, “Stickwitu”, and “Beep”. “Don’t Cha” is one of the best-selling girl group songs of all time and “Stickwitu” earn the girls' a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Performance By a Duo or Group.

After the departure of Carmit Bachar, Doll Domination was released as their second and final album in 2008. It spawned hit singles such as “When I Grow Up” and “I Hate This Part”.
