During a surprise show on August 6, 2021, Wallows performed an unreleased song for their fans. The track is suspected to be on the band’s second album that they had been alluding to throughout the year.
After fans worked out the song’s title, “I Don’t Want To Talk”, lead vocalist Dylan Minnette ret...
[Verse 1: Dylan with Braeden]
If I reflect, look back on that other place and time
When you left for a while and I kind of lost my mind (Hey)
Realized the older I get, I get more insecure
If I don't have you by my side, then I can't be sure
[Chorus: Dylan & Braeden]
I'm not alright, but I don't need comfort
I don't want to talk
So could you tell me that it's over, tell me that it's over
Tell me that it's over now?
Then I could shut this off (Woo)
[Verse 2: Dylan]
I went to send you off, felt off by what I saw there
Him in the leopard pattern coat that you wished you'd sharе
You in your brand new sweatsuit and your fresh platinum hair
Your Fjällrävеn Kånken's packed and I watch him stare
[Chorus: Dylan & Braeden]
I'm not alright, but I don't need comfort
I don't want to talk
So could you tell me that it's over, tell me that it's over
Tell me that it's over now?
Then I could shut this off
[Bridge: Braeden & Dylan]
Feeling like my mind's wiped, he looks more like your type
If I leave you tonight, will he leave your eyes wide?
Bet he didn't think first when he did a crowd surf
Effortlessly expert, attention grabber
Don't usually cry, but looks like that's over
I start to lose sight of myself and I wish I could shut it
Wish I could shut it off
[Chorus: Dylan & Braeden]
No, I'm not alright, but I don't need comfort
I don't want to talk
So could you tell me that it's over, tell me that it's over
Tell me that it's over now?
Then I could shut this off (Woo)

Dylan Minnette:
We fast-tracked finishing this song last year before we were done with the album, because we didn’t want to go too long without putting any music out. It felt like the right song to be the first song back, because its identity is very much a classic Wallows song. It is about insecur...
