The Best Part About Holding Hands Isn't the Warmth, But the Guidance
Remember the movie Inception
I kinda wanna do that so you'll figure out
Without the need for conversation
Otherwise I don't think I'll spit it out
Are you worthy of that information
Or am I just afraid of speaking it into existence
Not great at communication, but my body language has been awfully consistent
All these hints and clues are a line short of spilling truth
But you'll see what you wanna see
You oughtta know by now, something's not quite right
You should've learned by now how to read between the lines
Maybe they're not so straight, but it doesn't always work that way
I don't think it's quite fair to put the burden all on me
The elephant in the room is breaking all my bones
Are you blind or are you just acting like you don't know
You oughtta know by now, something's not quite right
You should've learned by now how to read between the lines
Maybe they're not so straight, but it doesn't always work that way
I don't think it's quite fair to put the burden all on me
The elephant in the room is breaking all my bones
Are you blind or are you just acting like you don't know
Wish I could visit your dreams
See what happens behind the scenes
Is it a computer or a bunch of little mini-mes
Running around chaotically? I imagine that's what it's like for me
Do I have to tell you? Can I write it on an post-it note
Leave it somewhere hard to find and quickly head on home
Do I have to tell you, why can't it just be known
Maybe I'll call you late, leave a message at the tone and it says
You oughtta know by now, something's not quite right
You should've learned by now how to read between the lines
Maybe they're not so straight, but it doesn't always work that way
I don't think it's quite fair to put the burden all on me
The elephant in the room is breaking all my bones
Are you blind or are you just acting like you don't know
You oughtta know by now, something's not quite right
You should've learned by now how to read between the lines
Maybe they're not so straight, but it doesn't always work that way
I don't think it's quite fair to put the burden all on me
The elephant in the room is breaking all my bones
Are you blind or are you just acting like you don't know
Wish I was an open book instead of a diary
Wish you would read me like I'm full of secrets
Wish I was an open book instead of a diary
Wish you would read me at all
I kinda wanna do that so you'll figure out
Without the need for conversation
Otherwise I don't think I'll spit it out
Are you worthy of that information
Or am I just afraid of speaking it into existence
Not great at communication, but my body language has been awfully consistent
