Stalemate

It's not what you say
It's how you say it
I'll cut copy paste in the edit
But these words are pouring out
Stop myself before I say it

And better luck talking to a wall
Or picking up a one way call
Clock set to your time
Always falling behind

No it's fine
No it's fine

It's just that sometimes
I wish you needed me more
Want you to let me in the room
But you won't open the door
You want me to know what you want before you want it
Trapped in a box I can't unlock it
But sometimes I wish you needed me more
And sometimes I wish you needed me more

Locked in a war of wills
Antlers silently clashing
Stirring up the dust
What's the use in asking

But I want you to meet me in the room
I can't tell you what to do
Take me in your stride
Always falling behind

No it's fine
No I'm fine

But I saw you draw a line with your short straw
And I try to lend a hand brushing off the sand
And I wish I knew how you wanted me to love you
And I wish I loved you just like that

But sometimes I wish you needed me more
Want you to let me in the room
But you won't open the door
You want me to know what you want before you want it
Trapped in a box I can't unlock it
But sometimes I wish you needed me more
But sometimes I wish you needed me more
