You've brought every conversation
I've tried to start to an end with thoughtless filler responses like "yeah me too" and "that's cool"
Forgive me for giving up and looking down at my feet
I've never noticed how much noise there is in silence
Like your short but forceful breathing and sighing from time to time
I am reminded to mind my eyes when they meet yours in the mirror
And I am greeted with a look that's trying very hard to kill me
And so you turn on the music to drown it all out
You've had every opportunity to end this night with a smile
But you're clinging to anger even though you know
That I'm the first to admit that I'm flawed and that my patience is finite
But I feel justified in biting my tongue
And then I'm suddenly taken back to when I was a kid
And we were never giving up and you can do anything you put your mind to
Apply my fathers advice to my younger self so I'll avoid confrontation and ride this one out
Maybe I'm alone in this thinking
Stutter and I'm under a lot of pressure in case you forgot
Maybe I have been overthinking this
I don't believe in much, but I believe in conversation
(Shit talk, and I'm holding them to the things they say as I'm walking away)
Nobody asks for a lot but still they got their expectations
(Somehow I imagined this differently, spending another night at home)
But at least I'm here with you, that's something worth holding on to
Fuck them we'll go home and stay in bed watching movies and it's cool, I'll tell you I love you
Pretty girl, tonight it's you and me
