[Verse 1]
You say
"I'm just tired"
But your eyes look past my face
All my tiny stories
Spill out
Crowding up your space
You nod
You say
"It's okay"
But your hands stay on your phone
I hear my own voice talking
And still I don't go home
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be too much of me
Pouring out on everyone I see
Every thought
Every fear
Every need
I'm scared that I'm flooding all your peace
If I pull back
Will you breathe?
Or will you just leave?
I don't wanna be too much of me
[Verse 2]
Friends change up the subject
When I circle back again
I laugh
Say
"I'm dramatic"
Try to play it off as pretend
But the room gets quiet
Like they’re walking on thin glass
Every question that I ask
Feels heavier than it has
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be too much of me
Pouring out on everyone I see
Every thought
Every fear
Every need
I'm scared that I'm flooding all your peace
If I pull back
Will you breathe?
Or will you just leave?
I don't wanna be too much of me
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm the storm
And you all need calmer skies
So I learn to hold the thunder
Somewhere just behind my eyes
If I start to disappear
Would it make your shoulders light?
Or would you miss the way
I kept calling you at night? (tell me)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be too much of me
So I'm learning how to count to three
Before I speak
Before I bleed
I swallow half of what I mean
If I get small
Will you see
There was something good in me?
I don't wanna be too much of me
