Open Book

How long have I been sitting on your nightstand
How long have we tried making all of these plans
You pick me up then you put me down
Another meltdown
Think that I should try another language
Maybe English is a little overrated
I got pages full of colors and dreams
You didn't understand one thing

Oh
Oh
I beg and plead
I beg and plead
Standing here in front of you
I can't believe
I just can't believe
That I took the time to
Spell it out word for word
Still never felt this unheard
I love you but this is absurd
Muted underwater while I
Scream
Scream
I'm an open book baby
That you didn't wanna read

You're acting like this is the ACT
Boy, you've had years to study me
And you got nothing to say as I leave
This knot in my throat says there's no hope
But I wrote you the SparkNotes
Tell me it's not true
I'm shaking you
Saying

Oh
Oh
I beg and plead
I beg and plead
Standing here in front of you
I can't believe
I just can't believe
That I took the time to
Spell it out word for word
Still never felt this unheard
I love you but this is absurd
Muted underwater while I
Scream
Scream
I'm an open book baby
That you didn't wanna read

I think it's true our stars aligned
But they might've shined too bright
And left your eyes just slightly blind
Swear I'll walk away this time
And maybe you'll get it one day
But I don't know if I can wait
Gave you every chance to change
Give me one reason to stay

Half way in did you get bored
There was so much more left to be told
The thought of this ending is too painful
Don't make me write this last chapter
Am I gonna have to start over
