I know what to say
To keep the thoughts at bay
Don't want to have to explain
So I will keep it contained
The words the jealousy
Provokes a skill in me
A dull passivity
Which makes it worse it seems
 
You want me to love harder
Don't want to ignore you
I know that this is wrong
But I'll indulge you slightly longer
It's easy to pretend that
The weirdness is not here it's
Only there til the end
It's easy to pretend

It's easy to pretend

Don't tell me how to be
Don't tell me how to think
Placate you on the brink
Absolved until the next thing
Choosing to remove
Yourself from all you cause
A futile game
It's you who's changed
 
Why can't you meet me halfway
Meet me halfway
Meet me halfway
I feel it glistening
No longer in our reach
 
You want me to love harder
Don't want to ignore you
I know that this is wrong
But I'll indulge you slightly longer
It's easy to pretend that
The weirdness is not here it's
Only there til the end
It's easy to pretend
It's easy to pretend
