You want a comedian with a poets soul
I could be funny but I guess you'll never know
You never shut your mouth long enough to hear me speak
The only time you ever listen is when we're being deep
You want protection from the difficult times
And then you run off to those difficult guys
I just can't shield you from all your uncut ties
I look like danger but it's all a ploy
I couldn't break you if you were my toy
No matter how wound up you wanted to be
I take the time to safely unwind your spring
You want connection in an adult way
But then betray it with the things you say
I can't pretend when it's just not okay
You look like sugar but you're just a bitter pill
I've suffered so much trying to swallow you, still
I'd gladly take you as my medicine
Cuz my prescription is my favorite sin
You say you want it truthfully
But then you run when it's reality
You'll only every get the truth from me
You say you want to laugh all day
Will you find it funny when I say
I'm growing tired of your games
You gave up your chance and that's a shame
I could be funny but I guess you'll never know
You never shut your mouth long enough to hear me speak
The only time you ever listen is when we're being deep
You want protection from the difficult times
And then you run off to those difficult guys
I just can't shield you from all your uncut ties
I look like danger but it's all a ploy
I couldn't break you if you were my toy
No matter how wound up you wanted to be
I take the time to safely unwind your spring
You want connection in an adult way
But then betray it with the things you say
I can't pretend when it's just not okay
You look like sugar but you're just a bitter pill
I've suffered so much trying to swallow you, still
I'd gladly take you as my medicine
Cuz my prescription is my favorite sin
You say you want it truthfully
But then you run when it's reality
You'll only every get the truth from me
You say you want to laugh all day
Will you find it funny when I say
I'm growing tired of your games
You gave up your chance and that's a shame
