Things I Wish I Could Say
Are you oblivious
Do you know who I talk about when I sing
Do you know that you're my inspiration and my pain
Do you know you're the reason you cry when you listen to my songs
It's entertaining to watch you think
Anxiety inducing to wait if you'll see
Will all the shadows come to light
Will my heart be opened for eyes
Or do you choose to ignore it
To make it easier for you to cope
Or will you stay oblivious
Do I have to shake you awake
To reality, I'm sick of you
I wish you'd leave
So I'd be free
My time is slim
I'm wasting it on you
My heart's been beating for far too long
My love for you is growing thin
And, boy, patience is just a gift
And I never liked accepting them
I hope you know you're dying
In my eyes, in my heart
I know you like your metaphors
I'm bleeding out by your hands
My cuts are deep
Your hands are holding the knife
It's entertaining to watch you think
Anxiety inducing to wait if you'll see
Will all the shadows come to light
Will my heart be opened for eyes
Or do you choose to ignore it
To make it easier for you to cope
Or will you stay oblivious
Do I have to shake you awake
To reality, I'm sick of you
I wish you'd leave
So I'd be free
My time is slim
I'm wasting it on you
Take your stupid sword and hurt me once more
I'll hurt you with words
They're not even getting to you
I sing my songs, you're oblivious
My words go right over your head
Is it worth all the pain
Can't you see I'm sick of you
I need you to leave, take a hint
But I know it'd hurt you beyond repair
Beyond repair
Even after all you've done
I don't want you to break by my hands
I know if you knew who you were
You'd fall apart
After all you've told me
You'd think I betrayed you
You'd think it's my fault and maybe it is
Because I'm silent
I'm silent
Do you know who I talk about when I sing
Do you know that you're my inspiration and my pain
Do you know you're the reason you cry when you listen to my songs
It's entertaining to watch you think
Anxiety inducing to wait if you'll see
Will all the shadows come to light
Will my heart be opened for eyes
Or do you choose to ignore it
To make it easier for you to cope
Or will you stay oblivious
Do I have to shake you awake
To reality, I'm sick of you
I wish you'd leave
So I'd be free
My time is slim
I'm wasting it on you
My heart's been beating for far too long
My love for you is growing thin
And, boy, patience is just a gift
And I never liked accepting them
I hope you know you're dying
In my eyes, in my heart
I know you like your metaphors
I'm bleeding out by your hands
My cuts are deep
Your hands are holding the knife
It's entertaining to watch you think
Anxiety inducing to wait if you'll see
Will all the shadows come to light
Will my heart be opened for eyes
Or do you choose to ignore it
To make it easier for you to cope
Or will you stay oblivious
Do I have to shake you awake
To reality, I'm sick of you
I wish you'd leave
So I'd be free
My time is slim
I'm wasting it on you
Take your stupid sword and hurt me once more
I'll hurt you with words
They're not even getting to you
I sing my songs, you're oblivious
My words go right over your head
Is it worth all the pain
Can't you see I'm sick of you
I need you to leave, take a hint
But I know it'd hurt you beyond repair
Beyond repair
Even after all you've done
I don't want you to break by my hands
I know if you knew who you were
You'd fall apart
After all you've told me
You'd think I betrayed you
You'd think it's my fault and maybe it is
Because I'm silent
I'm silent
