If I Control

Remember all the change we used to talk about
Remember all the change we used to dream about
It's slow coming

If I control
All my dreams
Why won't they
Stop happening?

I don't know who you are yet
But already I can't stop thinking about your teeth
And I hope you're scared to lose them
Because that's what keeps me warm

And it shouldn't
And it shouldn't
And that's selfish and absurd
But it's so hard to notice
When you're quiet as a bird
And you won't share your thoughts
'cause the last ones who heard
Still haven't deciphered the first couple words

And I'll predict the sound
You'll make before you leave here
A poor attempt at something
You thought too much about

And I'll predict the sound
(what did you say to me)
That I'll make before you leave here
(I wasn't listening)
A poor attempt at something
(when you're talking silently)
I thought too much about
(I can't hear anything)
