this song is about not wanting to talk to someone because you're in a bad place
lyrics
Sit down please stop sprinting
Breathe clearly your windpipe is stunted
clogged with the words that you want to say
And I've torn all my walls down just to let you in
I'll have trouble rebuilding when you're out
Which could be soon
If you're scared rest assured
You have nothing to be afraid of and I'm terrified too
Can I get back to you?
Can I get back to you with an email or something another time?
If I started to try and speak right now I'd quiver and cry and you wouldn't be able to understand me
I try to say these words and I hope you won't resent me
I filled your glass halfway and you called it half empty
It's okay, I only ever call it half full
When I'm trying to cheer you up, does that make me an asshole?
We talk about our hopes and dreams
And I lie to your face
The only thing I want is to not have a nightmare tonight
But that could be soon
If you're scared, rest assured
You have nothing to be afraid of and I'm terrified too
Can I get back to you
Can I get back to you with an email or something another time
If I started to try and speak right now I'd quiver and cry and you wouldn't be able to understand me
And I've seen flowers grow with vigor that I can't even imagine anymore
And I've seen flowers grow with vigor that I can't even imagine anymore
I've seen flowers grow with vigor that I can't even imagine anymore
After you
Can I get back to you?
