Small Talk

When you fall asleep
Right here next to me
I know what you're thinking, so tell—

I'm so tired of the small talk
You keep begging me for more
I keep thinking it's a lost cause
But I know you're keeping score

Give me patience when you see the start
My head leaning on the door
I keep fearing we're growing apart
I just hope you fear it more

When you fall asleep
Right here next to me
I know what you're thinking, so tell me
What you're reaching for
Won't you tell me what you're reaching for?

They say anger is a perfect start
Always taking me with force
So indifferent when I play the part
Isn't love a precious chore?

Everyday you keep on grabbing my neck
While you wait for something better
Everyday you keep on grabbing my neck
While I wait for something better

When you fall asleep
Right here next to me
I know what you're thinking, so tell me
What you're reaching for
Won't you tell me what you're reaching for?

(When you fall asleep)
(Right here next to me)
(I know what you're thinking, so tell me)
(What you're reaching for)
(Won't you tell me what you're reaching for?)
