The Less We Talk
Someone's gotta break first
There's only one way this goes down
Either you get hurt or even worse
We both keep holding out
I pass you in the kitchen
And no one makes a sound
So we rehearse the dance we learned
From circling around
What we really feel
We both try to run from what we really feel
But the less we talk
The more we're stuck
In conversations shallow enough to drown in
Silence that feels like shouting
And the more we bleed
The less I sleep
And I can't take going back to the place we started
But baby the hardest part is
That the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
I know you're not sleeping
I can see both the whites of your eyes
So just spit it out
If you're so damn proud
Then at least don't damage mine
So what if I'm leaving
It's not like you'd beg for me to stay
I was so in doubt but now I would do anything to say
What we really feel
We both try to run from what we really feel
But the less we talk
The more we're stuck
In conversations shallow enough to drown in
Silence that feels like shouting
And the more we bleed
The less I sleep
And I can't take going back to the place we started
But baby the hardest part is
That the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh
But the less we talk
The more we're stuck
In conversations shallow enough to drown in
And the more we bleed
The less I sleep
And I can't take going back to the place we started
We both try to run from what we really feel
The less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh
There's only one way this goes down
Either you get hurt or even worse
We both keep holding out
I pass you in the kitchen
And no one makes a sound
So we rehearse the dance we learned
From circling around
What we really feel
We both try to run from what we really feel
But the less we talk
The more we're stuck
In conversations shallow enough to drown in
Silence that feels like shouting
And the more we bleed
The less I sleep
And I can't take going back to the place we started
But baby the hardest part is
That the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
I know you're not sleeping
I can see both the whites of your eyes
So just spit it out
If you're so damn proud
Then at least don't damage mine
So what if I'm leaving
It's not like you'd beg for me to stay

We both try to run from what we really feel
But the less we talk
The more we're stuck
In conversations shallow enough to drown in
Silence that feels like shouting
And the more we bleed
The less I sleep
And I can't take going back to the place we started
But baby the hardest part is
That the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh
But the less we talk
The more we're stuck
In conversations shallow enough to drown in
And the more we bleed
The less I sleep
And I can't take going back to the place we started
We both try to run from what we really feel
The less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh the less we talk
The less we talk
Oh
