Read your Mind

(album: emails i can't send - 2022)

Made it clear when you told me
Don't know why but you gotta be lonely
Say it's hard but you make it look easy
So I'm trying to live in reality

Decompressing
Tryna ease the tension
But you got me stressing
Feeling like I need to call when you sneak up on me
Tell me that you miss me in your life

I can't read your mind
You say that you need to be alone
But night and day
Want me at your beck and call
You say you know
That you might be crossing a line
Wasting all our time
To think that we could be casual
You're not my friend
And, baby, you never were
Why the fuss if you say you just wanna be mine?
I can't read your mind

Tell me what's gonna happen
When it's you and me in a room but you know you can't have it?
Oh I'll be laughing
When you say that you really have changed
Finally found your way
'Cause I'm close to your face

Double-checking
Did I get the message in the way you intended?
Got me second-guessing when you sneak up on me
Tell me that you need me in your life

I can't read your mind
You say that you need to be alone
But night and day
Want me at your beck and call
You say you know
That you might be crossing a line
Wasting all our time
To think that we could be casual
You're not my friend
And, baby, you never were
Why the fuss if you say you just wanna be mine?
I can't read your mind

You say that you need to be alone
But night and day
Want me at your beck and call
You say you know
That you might be crossing a line

I can't read your mind
You say that you need to be alone
But night and day
Want me at your beck and call
(Want me at your beck and call)
You say you know
That you might be crossing a line
Wasting all our time
To think that we could be casual (Think)
You're not my friend (You're not my friend)
And, baby, you never were
Why the fuss if you say you just wanna be mine? (Why the fuss?)
I can't read your mind
