Love Is An Overstatement

(album: Mirror - 2023)

Eight months of almost
Of getting too close
It's always on your terms, but they are never fair
You say "good morning"
And call me "baby"
You're sending me mixed signals I don't understand

Three words, but I let it slide
You only mean it 'bout half the time
It's not my fault you can't decide
So

Love is an overstatement
But with you, it's complicated
Sometimes
It's not like I'm devastated
But we were good friends, and it didn't end right

If there was a line, then you crossed it
If we had a chance, then you lost it
Can we go back in time
When we both used to try?

If there was a line, then you crossed it
If there was a feeling, you fought it
You know I would have waited
But love would be an overstatement

You treat me badly
And patronize me
Say I'm seventeen like that's the reason

Try to blame your trauma
Said I should find another
But I'm not just a sounding board when you're defeated

Three words, but I let it slide
You only mean it 'bout half the time
It's not my fault you can't decide, so

Love is an overstatement
But with you, it's complicated
Sometimes
It's not like I'm devastated
But we were good friends, and it didn't end right

If there was a line, then you crossed it
If we had a chance, then you lost it
Can we go back in time
When we both used to try?

If there was a line, then you crossed it
If there was a feeling, you fought it
You know I would have waited
But love would be an overstatement

Love would be an overstatement
Love would be an overstatement

Love is an overstatement
But with you, it's complicated
Sometimes
It's not like I'm devastated
But we were good friends, and it didn't end right

If there was a line, then you crossed it
If there was a feeling, you fought it
You know I would have waited
But love would be an overstatement
