about

A song.

lyrics

I watched you smile as I asked you out
And I held you close and I kissed your mouth
I played my old songs but I changed the words
So I can show you what you're worth
And it's not so often I see your face
But I long to crash out in your space
And spin some records all night long
And have nothing to call you on

But I still spend most nights alone
Beside a silent telephone
I worry way too much for this
A natural born pessimist
You I'd want to call you first
But I don't have the proper words
And I don't know if you can even tell
But I love you more than I hate myself

The sinking hole inside my chest
Will never cease but will persist
Regardless of your affection
You're welling up my retinas
'Cause I can't seem to shake this thought
That you are something that you're not
I'm sorry that I have these doubts
I just can't shut my stupid mouth

But I still spend most nights alone
Beside a silent telephone
I worry way too much for this
A natural born pessimist
You I'd want to call you first
But I don't have the proper words
And I don't know if you can even tell
But I love you more than I hate myself

So you may leave me here all bloody and broke
I gasp for air and I’m trying not to choke
You know I’m glad you pulled me off the ground
But how soon will it be before you throw me back down?

But I still spend most nights alone
Beside a silent telephone
I worry way too much for this
A natural born pessimist
You I'd want to call you first
But I don't have the proper words
And I don't know if you can even tell
But I love you more than I hate myself
