Mess Around It - Acoustic
I catch you from a broken window
You seem happy to be back
You never liked San Francisco
Even your worst enemies know that
I don't know where you'd put me in your list
Am I still something that you miss?
Do I still haunt your mind
And your most secretive what-ifs?
What if i'm not around
To catch you this time?
A new pair of eyes
Will find you in the comfort of their arms?
What if you sing your songs
But I don't know how to follow now?
Will you teach me lyrics
Or have someone new with a better sound?
I just wanna know so I won't be
In my head about it
Every time we almost called it "love"
Is it now forgotten?
I just wanna know so I won't be
Walking past or behind it
Is there still a chance?
Is it worth the wait?
Is it worth all the mess around it?
I see you in my half-empty glass
Time's slipping by me so fast
Remember when you drank to impress
And I smoked to cope with all that stress?
Now we seem to be past old vices
But being left to our own devices
While I'm thinking we should try this
I'm afraid it's just withdrawal crisis
I just wanna know so I won't be
In my head about it
Every time we almost called it love
Is it now forgotten?
I just wanna know so I won't be
Walking past, behind, it
Is there still a chance?
Is it worth the wait?
Is it worth all the mess around it?
I see you though a rose-colored glass
Reality starts to mean less
The past person I painted you as
Washes in grey, a lot to process
I get separate pieces of "always"
Flashes of colors through your gaze
Pains that could fit all our days
After the thrilled nostalgia phase
What if I'd stayed up
A little later that night?
Confessed my thoughts
My mixed feelings and desires
What if I'd turned around
In time to catch your smile?
Would it change what I did?
Is there something I can do now?
I just wanna know so I won't be
In my head about it
Every time we almost called it love
Is it now forgotten?
I just wanna know so I won't be
Walking past, behind, it
Is there still a chance?
Is it worth the wait?
Is it worth all the mess around it?
You seem happy to be back
You never liked San Francisco
Even your worst enemies know that
I don't know where you'd put me in your list
Am I still something that you miss?
Do I still haunt your mind
And your most secretive what-ifs?
What if i'm not around
To catch you this time?
A new pair of eyes
Will find you in the comfort of their arms?
What if you sing your songs
But I don't know how to follow now?
Will you teach me lyrics
Or have someone new with a better sound?
I just wanna know so I won't be
In my head about it
Every time we almost called it "love"
Is it now forgotten?
I just wanna know so I won't be
Walking past or behind it
Is there still a chance?
Is it worth the wait?
Is it worth all the mess around it?
I see you in my half-empty glass
Time's slipping by me so fast
Remember when you drank to impress
And I smoked to cope with all that stress?
Now we seem to be past old vices
But being left to our own devices
While I'm thinking we should try this
I'm afraid it's just withdrawal crisis
I just wanna know so I won't be
In my head about it
Every time we almost called it love
Is it now forgotten?
I just wanna know so I won't be
Walking past, behind, it
Is there still a chance?
Is it worth the wait?
Is it worth all the mess around it?
I see you though a rose-colored glass

Is there something I can do now?
I just wanna know so I won't be
In my head about it
Every time we almost called it love
Is it now forgotten?
I just wanna know so I won't be
Walking past, behind, it
Is there still a chance?
Is it worth the wait?
Is it worth all the mess around it?
