[Verse 1]
I type it out
Delete it twice
I twist my words
Try to sound nice
You say "okay"
But your eyes glaze
Whole conversation
Lost in a phrase
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m standing right in front of you
But you only hear the part you choose
Every sentence that I send
Comes back broken once again
[Chorus]
I’m speaking loud
Loud
Loud
But it’s like I’m on mute to you (to you)
You turn my heart inside out
Make a new meaning
Say it’s true
Every word I say
You flip it
Twist it
Paint it wrong
I’m shouting all my thoughts
But you still don’t get my song (oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
You read my chat
Like it’s a war
Tiny emojis
Start a storm
I say "I’m tired"
You hear "goodbye"
How did a sigh
Turn into a lie?
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m standing right in front of you
But you only hear the part you choose
I’m not a riddle
Not a test
Why’s it hard to take me as I am?
[Chorus]
I’m speaking loud
Loud
Loud
But it’s like I’m on mute to you (mute to you)
You turn my heart inside out
Make a new meaning
Say it’s true
Every word I say
You flip it
Twist it
Paint it wrong
I’m shouting all my thoughts
But you still don’t get my song (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
Maybe I should write it on my skin
So you can see the place I’ve been
Every scar a little caption
Every tear a reaction
I’m tired of the translation game
Hearing my name
In a story that I never claimed (never claimed)
[Chorus]
I’m speaking loud
Loud
Loud
But it’s like I’m on mute to you
You turn my heart inside out
Make a new meaning
Say it’s true
Every word I say
You flip it
Twist it
Paint it wrong
I’m shouting all my thoughts
But you still don’t get my song (my song)
You still don’t get my song (hey!)
