Sleep Over

(album: What They'll Say About Us - 2021)

I'm going through the list of all the things my sister told me not to say
Be yourself but not so much that you end up scaring everyone away
Promise not to fall too hard for a beautiful face
Take it easy, take it easy, don't you lose your mind, it's just a first date

And you tell me things that I knew
Shouldn't read that much into you
Told my family about it too soon
I always do

And you could sleep over, over
Before you make me wanna cry
And wish it was over, over
Before we even got to try
And I called, thirteen times
Said I'm cool but I lied
Cause I'm scared if you know me it'll change your mind

If I believe in karma would it make my crazy something cute
Or am I just a sucker hiding who am I and burying the proof
But if you're not the one, then would you least admit it
Cause you're dancing round the question like you think I couldn't take a take a little truth

I'm in love and I tell everyone
Guess that you thought we're just having fun
So I drink til I'm drunk yeah I'm done
I'm not having fun

But could you sleep over, over
Before you make me wanna cry
And wish it was over, over
Before we even got to try
And I called, thirteen times
Said I'm cool but I lied
Cause I'm scared if you know me it'll change your mind

And I tried
But the list of what I hate about myself is small to what I like
Oh, I tried
But you hurt me, it's working, it's hurting
Oh baby, I die
When it's midnight and I'm at your door and that's the time I realize
That I tried
But you hurt me you hurt me you hurt me
So why do I ask

Do you wanna sleep over, over
Before you make me wanna cry
And wish it was over, over
Before we even got to try
And I called, thirteen times
Said I'm cool but I lied
Cause I'm scared if you know me it'll change your mind
Cause I'm scared if you know me it'll change your mind
Cause once you got to know me it'll change your mind
