Lyrics

I stick around ‘cause it’s familiar
But I’m just scrolling through pictures
Never thought that this bed could get bigger
It’s not the same
You don’t ask and I never say it
I got so good at fakin’
What’s the straw to finally break it?
We say I love you, but it doesn't sound the same
Ah-ooh
We’re caught in a wreck
Ah-ooh
And I made the mess
Staring in the mirror like I got two heads
‘Part of me saying we're not supposed end
I could keep pretending but it ain't the truth
Cause I’ve been lying next to you
Let me in, what are you thinking?
I hate to see you hurt
So I deny that something is missing
And say I love you but that only makes it worse
Ah-ooh
What’d I expect?
Ah-ooh
Nevertheless, I’m
Staring in the mirror like I got two heads
‘Part of me saying we're not supposed end
I could keep pretending but it ain't the truth
Cause I’ve been lying next to you
Is it a phase?
Or am I just crazy thinking that things might change?
Are we just doing the same damn thing?
Staring in the mirror like I got two heads
‘Part of me saying we're not supposed end
I could keep pretending but it ain't the truth
Cause I’ve been lying next to you
Yea I got my secrets and they’re hard to keep
Cause you keep lying next to me
Would it make a difference if I told the truth?
Would we still be strangers in this room?
Would I still be lying next to you?
