Verse 1
You said you’re bad at timing
I think you’re bad at me
You only call me crying
When no one else can see
You say I’m understanding
Like that’s a compliment
But really it just means you think
I’ll take what I can get
⸻
Pre-Chorus
And I let you
Yeah I let you
Like I always do
⸻
Chorus (upbeat but biting)
So say it again like you mean it
Tell me you’re “trying your best”
You only love me in pieces
Then act like I wanted the mess
I should be over your nonsense
But I’m not over it yet
You keep me just out of reach
Then pull me back when I forget
⸻
Verse 2
You ask me how I’m doing
Like you don’t know the truth
You left me in the middle
Of everything with you
And now you’re acting different
Like I’m the one who changed
But you’re the one who disappears
Then shows up just the same
⸻
Pre-Chorus
And I hate it
Yeah I hate it
That I still wait
⸻
Chorus
So say it again like you mean it
Tell me you’re “trying your best”
You only love me in pieces
Then act like I wanted the mess
I should be over your nonsense
But I’m not over it yet
You keep me just out of reach
Then pull me back when I forget
⸻
Bridge (quieter, almost talking)
I know you think I won’t leave
You’ve gotten used to me staying
But one day I won’t pick up
And you’ll have nothing left to say
⸻
Final Chorus (slightly bigger but still chill)
So say it again like you mean it
Pretend that you actually care
You only show up when it’s easy
Then vanish when I’m really there
And maybe I’ll finally see it
And stop letting you in
But right now I’m stuck in between
Who you are and who you’ve been
