Listen

No words I can say
This time I have myself to blame
It's been a whole month
Since you told me we should just give up
You gave up

I didn't want to hold on
Just wanted control of
Something I don't know of
I cannot let go of
The simple temptation
Of making you face in
Something I embraced
When I should've encased it
And now you won't listen

I'll just sing until my
Heart seeps through my skin
Sing until you're really Listenin'
Oh, Listen

Go on and take
Two giant steps backward, turn away
It was a mistake
Thinkin' I could decode a whole-brain
When my own is in flames

I didn't want to hold on
Just wanted control of
A part of your mind that
No one really knows of
Your inward reflection
Was not mine to mess with
I kept trying to guess
When I should've just left it
And now you're smile's different

I'll just sing until my
Heart seeps through my skin
Sing until you're really Listenin'
Oh, Listen

So much time spent reading into you
I forgot to read into myself too
Two giant steps backward I can see
I have no clue as to what I might

Sing until my
Heart seeps through my skin
Sing until you're really Listenin'
Oh, Listen
