lyrics

Hear/Here

weeding out the words that I won’t use
to say the things you need to.
stylize and simplify each phrase
so it communicates just what it is
you’ve been thinking about.

trying on this confidence for size
who knows, we both might be surprised.
this time I’ve come prepared to say it
i hope it all comes out okay

thought that I could tell you with a stare,
but you were looking over where
you found your figure in the glass
you’d rather look on back at that
than hear me out.

walking towards you i reach for my throat
oh shit, I think that I might choke again
i can’t go in, the silence hits and
i’m drowning in everything
i’ve been thinking about

thought that I could tell you with a stare,
but you were looking over where
you found your figure in the glass
you’d rather look on back at that
than hear me out.
