I know you read my eyes, no need for subtle tears
No need for secrets anymore
I shouldn't be surprised, I knew how this would be
Since you showed up outside my door
You might not know me best, but every time I rest
I picture you inside my arms
Lying awake, abreast
The thoughts that I suppressed
Know they can't do me any harm
You might not know me best, but every time I rest
All the little pieces of myself I gave to her
I wish I'd saved so you could try to understand
And all the fickle people that I'd tell to make it work
They never stayed, they never tried to understand
When your expressions bleed
It's hard to sympathize
But I could never walk away
When every word you speak
Feels like a sacrifice
I'll sit in silence
I'll sit in silence
I'll stay
I know the little pieces of myself I gave to her
I wish I'd saved so you could try to understand
And all the fickle people that I'd tell to make it work
They never stayed, they never tried to understand
I tried to understand
Then you found me
Loving when you wrap yourself around me
But sometimes I can feel it so I'm drowning, girl
Please don't hesitate
Then you found me
You're the only one who didn't doubt me
Anything you want then you can show me, girl
Please don't hesitate
And it feels like all the little pieces of myself I gave to her
I wish I'd saved so you could try to understand
And all the fickle people
That I've been
I'd tell to make it work
They never stayed
They never tried to understand
