lyrics

if i knew you soon would leave the room
i’d stop to think before you’d move
about what i would say to you
and if you’d listen to
all the things that i can’t say
‘cause when it seems
you’re here to stay
you’d get up and walk away
maybe i’ll get it out one of these days

concerns of mine’ll just rush to mind
but the nouns and verbs are so hard to find
if i could, i’d say why
but i’m a little tongue tied
i’m scared of what’s beneath
those eyes and what you keep
inside, the attic’s deep
in your mind, out of reach

we’ve all got thoughts that we don’t want to talk about
that put us beside ourselves
someone that we can hide behind
to keep you from finding out

all the things i can’t say, i’ll sing
and put it out to figure out these things
let it out and hope to god it brings
me closer, to what’s missing
all the things i can’t say i’ll sing
but you and i both know it stings
to hear something so startling
you thought i could never say, but it’d make you think

i’m a bottle with a message inside
washing up your shoreline
that’s without a single line
cause i don’t know what i’d write, but
if i had some sentences
i’d hope they’d make some sense
and hope they’d say things best
and not just make a mess

we’ve all got thoughts that we don’t want to talk about
that put us beside ourselves
sometimes i need to try, to pry
and trust the right words’ll fly out my mouth
