More Than the Minimum

You paint all your blues golden
My reds are convoluted
I told you not to get involved
Another fight left unresolved
My favorite shade of orange is how you spend your mornings
Your color palette's not familiar with the concept of tears

You asked for paper-thin feelings
You got my apologies and speeches
We differ on the definition of speechless
When you're well-rested I'm sleepless
I asked for emotional blankets
Comfort instead of pointing out weakness
We differ on the definition of home
You only need a bed when I only want

One moment of mutual trying
More than the minimum of surviving
A little more than uncomfortable silence
Less trying to replace all the fighting
Locking eyes with you's a waste of my time and
You make being vulnerable a crime I'll
Kill time in the depths of your lies and
Treat everything you do as a warning

Sign your name on all your demons
Hand them to me with pretense
Make all my nightmares come alive
Claim actual love's a waste of time

I asked for emotional blankets
Comfort instead of pointing out weakness
We differ on the definition of home
You only need a bed when I only want

One moment of mutual trying
More than the minimum of surviving
A little more than uncomfortable silence
Less trying to replace all the fighting
Locking eyes with you's a waste of my time and
You make being vulnerable a crime I'll
Kill time in the depths of your lies and
Treat everything you do as a warning
One moment of mutual trying
More than the minimum of surviving
A little more than uncomfortable silence
Less trying to replace all the fighting
Locking eyes with you's a waste of my time and
You make being vulnerable a crime I'll
Kill time in the depths of your lies and
Treat everything you do as a warning
