[Verse 1]
You walk in
Shoes on
Phone up
Half hug
Then your head goes down
I’m spinning in this brand new dress
You just brush right past me now
Changed my hair
Changed my perfume
Learned the things you like to eat
Got a playlist
Got the candles
Still you’re staring at a screen
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
Baby
Am I talking to a ghost here?
Calling
Calling
But you never really hear me
I keep bending till I’m breaking at the seams
Yeah
What do you see?
[Chorus]
Why’s it so hard to read me?
I’m right here
Right here
Dancing in your T-shirt
Needy
But you don’t
You don’t care
I keep turning myself inside out
Just to make you look at me now
Why’s it so hard to read me?
When I’m screaming love out loud
[Verse 2]
Took up games that you were into
Laugh at jokes I never get
Practice lines in every mirror
“How was work?” in perfect steps
Cooked your favorite on a Tuesday
Stayed up late to let you vent
But your eyes glaze when I’m talking
Like my words are just the vents
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
Baby
Am I asking for too much here?
One touch
One look that makes it all clear
I keep running in a circle for your cheer
Yeah
Can you see me?
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] I won’t shrink till I’m see-through
Won’t twist just to fit you
I want more than a half-heart
I want all of your full view
[crescendo] If you want me
You can meet me on this dance floor
Hands up
Eyes on
Not that small talk
If you feel me
You can show me what you came for
Or I’m done trying to unlock your heart
[Chorus]
