Come Clean

I wanna convince you I'm not the girl with no plans 'till you call
Who lets tonight take me anywhere it asks
I wanna convince you I'm not the girl who likes to get a little bit lost
Who doesn't lean in but will always lean in back
But here we are and here I am
Bottles underneath the passenger seat
Hide behind the steering wheel, think we saw the police
Ask you what you're doing with your hand on my knee
And you said, does it have to be something
Cause I don't think I see white lines
Or I just cross them every damn time
You don't mind forgetting her a few times
And you sent your memory off running
Cause we made this oath no one can know
Nothing to tell but I won't too
Where this might go won't be disclosed
But pinky promises I sworn on the weakest part of you

Cause what goes up comes down
But silence is the nicest sound
There can't be something wrong if it ain't something
Cause I'm the girl you want around
Think you're the boy that I've been warned about
We might hit the ground but we'll hit it running
Cause we love coming to the places that make it
Impossible to come clean
No we can't come clean

You try to convince me you're not the guy
With hands like sinking sand
But you pull on me in the second I step too close
You try to convince me you're not the guy
I thought you were in the past
But maybe you're worse and I've gotten just as bad
And it hits me you take every chance you find
To do what you have to lie about
Then lie about how it's not that bad to do
And it hits me that I am just like you
5 am won't play the fool
Could've broken the spell and not the rules
But I didn't want to
Cause we made this oath no one can know
Nothing to tell but I won't too
Cause if you've got my hand I guess there's no
Space for the convictions that you say you hold
But pinky promises I swore on the weakest part of you

Cause what goes up comes down
But silence is the nicest sound
There can't be something wrong if it ain't something
Cause I'm the girl you want around
Think you're the boy that I've been warned about
We might hit the ground but we'll hit it running
Cause we love coming to the places that make it
Impossible to come clean
No we can't come clean

Once we tell the truth about the past
History might come right back
Say it's nothing wrong and I believe you
We both don't see it black and white
But babe we both don't feel that knife
But does that mean this isn't something lethal

Cause what goes up comes down but silence is the nicest sound
There can't be something wrong if it ain't something
Cause I'm the girl you want around
Think you're the boy that I've been warned about
We might hit the ground but we'll hit it running
What goes up comes down but silence is the nicest sound
There can't be something wrong if it ain't something
Cause I'm the girl you want around
Think you're the boy that I've been warned about
We might hit the ground but we'll hit it running
Cause we love coming to the places that make it
Impossible to come clean
We'll never come clean
