What would you say if I told you that you're beautiful?
Deflect, protect the golden rule
What if I told you that I had a knife in my back?
I'm paper thin to slip back into pavement cracks
We've both heard that it's best to play it cool

I write it off (kick me on the ground)
As I write this down
I will eat my words when you shut me out
In the seamless weaving of drowning thoughts in my head
I don't wanna love but I don't wanna be alone again
(Alone again)

What would you say if I told you that we're akin?
I wanna know how it feels underneath your skin
I wanna see all of that pictures on your dartboard
Wanna know why you ceased to praise the lord
Can you hear my whispered thoughts across the room?

I write it off (kick me on the ground)
As I write this down
I will eat my words when you shut me out
In the seamless weaving of drowning thoughts in my head
I don't wanna love but I don't wanna be...
