lyrics

She says she don't know. She says she don't know if she wants this anymore. She says "could you please not play that song right now" because she don't wanna hear it. she says she's alone. She says nobody hurts like she does. She says "are you lonesome like I know you are?" Because she’s needing to feel needed.

Forgivable for so long. I admit a lack of commitment to the dates and goals that I set for myself. Been giving up on thoughts that count and for a lack of better words exists a silence that swallows me.

I am a selfish man in a world of so-called good intentions. But I blend right in. I see her every day but she don't sing for me. I see her every day singing in her head

"Are you as happy here as you could be somewhere else or am I wasting goddamn time? I know your answer attempts at escaping this conversation but I don't know if you mean it. Yeah. " Yeah SHE SAYS.

She fears the unknown. Yeah she's afraid of the sun exploding. She says "hey it ain’t me problem, so I'll close my eyes and I'll pretend like I don't feel it." She hates it at home. Yeah, her folks don't get along with each other. She says "getting sick of hearing arguments that no one ever wins. Yeah, no one ever wins."

Forgivable for so long, blood runs thicker and I suppose that that's the way that it should be. Still dreaming about yesterday. I can remember better days, now there's just silence that swallows me.

I am a selfish man in a world of so-called good intentions. But I blend right in. I see her every day but she don't sing for me. I see her every day singing in her head

"Are you as happy here as you could be somewhere else or am I wasting goddamn time? I know your answer attempts at escaping this conversation but I can't tell if you mean it. Yeah. " Yeah SHE SAYS.
