Say you wanna have a candid conversation
Doesn't seem like that
All those times I tried to say it then you cried
Yeah, you can't take it back
Oh, I didn't mean to make you sad
Try to let you in behind the curtain
And you block me out
I'm sitting and I'm listening
Silently wishing you'd release control
Oh, why can't you allow me to
Say I need a little more from you
Now you'll walk out on me
That's predictability
And I'm falling forwards
Catch you if I can
Say I won't speak again
As our sky gets darker
I can't tell you
What I want to
Pretend we'll make
It through this way
It's effortless
It's effortless
Screaming on the street
That I've ruined everything
I watch you lose it
Then my face is in your hands
You're kissing me again
Like there's nothing to it
Oh, I'm watching my life back on tape
Oh, I guess that some things never change
Now you'll walk out on me
That's predictability
And I'm falling forwards
Catch you if I can
Say I won't speak again
As our sky gets darker
I can't tell you
What I want to
Pretend we'll make
It through this way
Aah, aah, making bad look easy
Aah, aah, you don't care to please me
Aah, aah, and I'm still not leaving
I can't tell you
What I want to
Pretend we'll make
It through this way
Oh, I'm watching my life back on tape (it's effortless)
Oh, I guess that some things never change (it's effortless)
I can't tell you
What I want to
Pretend we'll make
It through this way
