A simple overreaction
Another fight that I don't wanna have
Wish we'd just let it pass and
Move along cause it's sad to be sad
Swear I don't even recall whatever started this
And I know you feel the same

Maybe that is the problem
Maybe it's just been a little too long
Since we sat down to talk and
I'm scared of what we've become
Oh, I know it doesn't help to keep avoiding it
But it's harder than it seems

When you love someone
But life gets in the way
When you love someone
But you don't know what to say
When you love somebody who knows you better than you know yourself
It feels so wrong
When you love someone
To watch em get away

I'm scared your mom's gonna hate me
If this is it, guess it is and it's tough
Cause none of us will be changing
I'm afraid that we're shit out of luck
Oh, I'm terrified to face a new reality
And it's gonna take a while

When you love someone
But life gets in the way
When you love someone
But you don't know what to say
When you love somebody who knows you better than you know yourself
It feels so wrong
When you love someone
To watch em get away"
