lyrics

Meet you on the front porch you’re ready to go
I’m stretching out the truth ’til I’m being dishonest
Kept it on the low that was taking its toll
So now I gotta break off as quick as I promised

And I didn’t want to hurt you so I never said anything relevant
I had to be everything, oh
I didn’t want to burn you, I was trying to be elegant
But I fucked up

So I won’t tell you why, tell you why, tell you why
No, not this morning
I won’t tell you why, tell you why, ooh

Swimming for a way to get out of my head
Caught out by a rip and I swore I was drowning
Huddled on the beach I just couldn’t pretend
The answers that you needed weren’t the things I was doubting
The answers that I gave you were the things I was doubting

And I didn’t want to hurt you so I never said anything relevant
I had to be everything, all the time
And even though I burned you I’m still trying to be elegant, and never malevolent
But I fucked up

So I won’t tell you why, tell you why, tell you why
No, not this morning
I won’t tell you why, tell you why, ooh
