I think that we should talk.
And not the same old talk we always have
Where you get sad and I just walk away.
I think that we should yell.
I know it s**s, but it's hard to tell if we're okay
When you insist there's nothing left to say.
You're gonna make me say it first
Well honey, this is gonna hurt
You know that I don't like confrontation,
So I'll take my time
You think that we should wait it out
That there's no need to scream and shout
Well you're gonna hear me screaming now!
Am I out of line?
Well you know the words come easy if I let them,
Even though I might regret them in the morning
Yeah, I open my mouth and things go south for us
But you know the cost of keeping quiet
Is so unsatisfying, leaves me empty and angry and raw.
How do we determine the final straw?
And you think you'll call my bluff.
Well honey, that's your call I don't care at all
Or if I did, those days are numbered now
Maybe it's just our time, the opposite of when the stars align
A quick decline, and then we take our bows
So this is how we fall apart,
The wrong words and a false start
You know that I won't take it back when I speak my mind
You think that we should wait it out
That there's no need to scream and shout
Well you're gonna hear me screaming now
Am I out of line?
Well you know the words come easy if I let them
Even though I might regret them in the morning
Yeah, I open my mouth and things go south for us
But you know the cost of keeping quiet
Is so unsatisfying, leaves me empty and angry and raw
How do we determine-
How do we determine-
How do we determine the final straw?
Oh, the cost of keeping quiet
Is so unsatisfying, leaves me empty and angry and raw
How do we determine-
How do we determine-
How do we determine the final straw?
