I'm waiting for silence

While watching your call

I'm trying to not pick up the phone

'Cause you'd say I'm a liar

And you wouldn't be wrong

But forgive me for tryna play along

'Cause we break down together

We make out together

We fake out our problems

And make ones that never escape our endeavours

Know you could do better than me

But you don't want nothing to do with someone who makes you smile

And you don't want nothing to say to someone who hears your cries

No you don't try making amends with someone who makes you feel alive

'Cause they're someone who always reminds you what you're not

We're a perfect distraction

From what's in our heads

Reminders of paths we didn't tread

'Cause anything is better than admitting that we're better alone

When you'd rather be dead

Than be living on your own

But you don't want nothing to do with someone who makes you smile

And you don't want nothing to say to someone who hears your cries

No you don't try making amends with someone who makes you feel alive

'Cause they're someone who always reminds you

'Cause we break down together

We make out together

We fake out our problems

And make ones that never escape our endeavours

I know you'll do better than me

But for now we'll take what we get

And we'll work through regret

And we'll plan for a future we prolly won't get

We fake love for now

But I know you'll do better than me

'Cause you won't want nothing to do with someone who makes you cry

And you won't have something to say with someone who needs more time

No you'll go start making amends with someone who makes you feel alive

'Cause they're someone who's gonna remind you what you're not

What you're not

'Cause anything is better than admitting that we're better alone

But there's someone who's gonna remind you what I'm not
