[Verse 1]
I was looking for a reason why I shouldn't call you
I knowingly provided me with more than one
It was overkill
I came over still
You were sitting in the corner in a wooden chair
And pretended for a second that I wasn't there
I sit next to you
Held my breath with you
[Pre-Chorus]
If you don't say anything, you still can't lie
I've known you well enough to realize
That every second I was by your side
You were desperately alone
[Chorus 1]
You'll see some things you don't like about yourself
In me
And I don't have to leave this fragile lie to know I'd make the same mistakes
Again
[Verse 2]
Every moment afterwards, a shorthand instance here
It was obvious you didn't want me here
We reconcile the differences
You still act the same
Like I'm childish and I will never change
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause if you don't say anything, you still can't lie
I've known you well enough to realize
That every second I was by your side
You were desperately alone
[Chorus 2]
You're going to find somethings you don't like about yourself
In me
And I don't have to leave this fragile lie to know I'd make the same mistakes
Again
Again
[Verse 3]
And please, if you see yourself in me
Would you focus on the things that would make you glad that we're alike
And I pray
That the similarities are enough to help you see that I'll make this right
