Silence

(album: Songs For Boys That Didn't Text Me Back - 2019)

3 A.M., I said I would be in bed by 10
But then you said to come thru
And of course, I went
Talked about nothing with a few fake friends
Just to be around you
For a minute or two

So here I wait
Half drunk in the drizzling rain
In jeans too tight for me to breathe
But you don't know a single thing

'Cause I'm screaming in silence (Shh)
Oh, I can't say what's on my mind
Boy you're singing like a siren
And it's keeping me awake at night
I wish you knew
But I'm never telling you
Oh, I'm screaming in silence (Shh)
'Cause I don't wanna hear you say you don't want me

Remix plays on cheap speakers of a song I hate
Teardrops in the bathroom
Don't know what to do (Don't know what to do)
So I gloss my lips
Remind myself that I'm a badass bitch
And I don't really need you
'Til I believe that it's true ('Til I believe that it's true)

But still, I wait
Half drunk in this drizzling rain
In jeans too tight for me to breathe
But you don't know a single thing

'Cause I'm screaming in silence (Shh)
I can't say what's on my mind
Boy you're singing like a siren
And it's keeping me awake at night
I wish you knew
But I'm never telling you
Oh, I'm screaming in silence (Shh)
'Cause I don't wanna hear you say you don't want me too, too
'Cause I don't wanna hear you say you don't want me too, too

And babe, I know it's pathetic that I've stayed
With all these words trapped in my brain
But 'til I learn to walk away

I'll be screaming in silence
I can't say what's on my mind
Boy you're singing like a siren
And it's keeping me awake at night
I wish you knew
But I'm never telling you
Oh, I'm screaming in silence
'Cause I don't wanna hear you say you don't want me too, too
'Cause I don't wanna hear you say you don't want me too, too
'Cause I don't wanna hear you say you don't want me
