lyrics

Midway through our date
I can see your eyes glazing over
As I stumble through the conversation
I can't be myself with you

My chest is heaving with
all the things I wanna say to you
You look me in the eyes, I can't read your gaze,
I just kinda stare at your neck.

Oh Christ, I feel like an idiot.

Here I am,
Slack-jawed and stupid again
I can feel myself getting boring
Why on earth could you wanna be my friend?
I can see you look elsewhere.

I wanna rip apart my limbs
I wanna scream myself at you
I wanna show you that I'm worth it
But I am paralyzed, and you're not buying it

Oh God I can be beautiful
I can be so funny
I can be quick--

Take the time to draw it out
Take the time to call me out
And I'd love you,
I'd really love you for it.

But you aren't gonna call me again
I can tell and my back is gonna break
With this heaviness I've hidden from you,
The heaviness of me

You don't wanna carry it.
Who's gonna carry it?
