lyrics

Hey, what’s up I was thinking
That you and I should go have some coffee and talk
Like we used to
But, if you don’t want to,
We could always go see a movie instead
So we don’t have to interact with one another
I know you don’t want to bother
I’m sorry I still care
It’s like I’m talking to myself I swear

Now I know the weather is nice and
I’m sure your day at work went fine
Like always
But how do you really feel?
Are you getting everything you want from life?

Are you satisfied or are you feeling left behind?
Are all your friends from high school
Leading better lives than you?

Why won’t you tell me what you’re feeling inside (Why won’t you kiss me back? I’m here.)
You’ve got me to confide in
You don’t have to hide in
There
Is no good reason you should treat me this way
I’ve been right here beside you
And that’s where I’m gonna stay

So are you going to continue
To get mad at everything I say and do?
Well then fuck you
‘Cause I won’t let you off that easy
You and I are in this thing for the long haul
So just get used to doing things that all the other couples do
Like saying I love you
And maybe meaning it

Why won’t you tell me what you’re feeling inside (Why won’t you kiss me back? I’m here.)
You’ve got me to confide in
You don’t have to hide in
There
Is no good reason you should treat me this way
I’ve been right here beside you
And that’s where I’m gonna stay

Now I know that you blame me
For not looking like a celebrity
And I know it’s there, but never said
That I don’t compare to the person in your head

So, I was kinda thinking
That you and I could go have some coffee and talk
Like we used to
But, if you don’t want to
We could always go see a movie instead
But you will have to hold my hand
Now
Get over yourself
And just admit that I can help you if you would…

Would just shut up and let me
(Just shut up and let me)
So just shut up and let me

Why won’t you tell me what you’re feeling inside (Why won’t you... I’m here)
You’ve got me to confide in
You don’t have to hide in
There
Is no good reason you should treat me this way
I’ve been right here beside you
And that’s where I’m gonna stay
Yeah, that’s where I’m gonna stay
