Eye to Eye

That's it, I quit, it's done
It's gotta be over now
The time has come to bury myself in these chords
Well, I'm finished, completed with this over-complicated game of run-around

Oh, it was much simpler when we walked in single file
When all our fantasies would run for miles
Can we stop and look each other eye to eye?

During recess, we would have passed back and forth love notes
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Today, I'm hearing 30 different versions of the words they said
You spoke (yeah)

You're tired of the late nights walking home alone
When I could be staring up out in the cold with you
Can we stop and look each other eye to eye?

What would you say to me
If you knew I wasn't listening?
I want to know, honestly
Don't leave me out in the dark no more

(Yeah, I will)
Well, middle school brought some blunders
Fighting, fumbling with the words to say and I was
I was scared of spinning bottles
And always planning out the perfect date

Oh, we're back to our present lives at hand
Can you see that hopeful sign? It's changing
Can we stop and look eye to eye?

What would you say to me
If you knew I wasn't listening?
And I want to know, honestly
Don't leave me out in the dark no more

I guess some games are bound to happen
I've played them too without fulfillment
I guess I'm just as clueless as the rest (oh-oh-whoa)
But if this stuff continues on, our chance is looking slim to none
So you'll be you and I'll be me
Impressing's not the way to be, no
Oh, sincerity

What would you say to me
If you knew I wasn't listening?
I want to know, honestly
Don't leave me out in the dark
Don't leave me out in the dark

Can we stop and look each other eye to eye?
Yeah, oh (eye to eye)
Eye to eye
