[VERSE 1]
Thought we were going strong
even told my parents about you
you seemed along for the ride.
So where'd you go?
You say you've gotten busy
but I see you're always online.
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
Did you want a vacation?
Or just a notification?
'Cause all I get is static when I
tune into your statio-o-on...
[CHORUS]
You've gone radio silent baby
Feels like you're turning the dials on me
And the airwaves that you're broadcasting age
fifty shades of gray,
while my face is turning violet
from your radio silence.
[VERSE 2]
Thought there was nothing wrong
Why rock the boat? No reason to doubt you
Just drift along with the tide
It's getting cold
surviving on that promise to see me
you made the 4th of July.
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Now it's the end of September
Maybe it's time to surrender
Wake me up when you decide to
get a new calendar
[CHORUS]
You've gone radio silent baby
Feels like you're turning the dials on me
And the airwaves that you're broadcasting age
fifty shades of gray,
while my face is turning violet
from your radio silence.
[BRIDGE/INSTRUMENTAL]
... Radio Silence
[CHORUS]
You've gone radio silent baby
Feels like you're turning the dials on me
And the airwaves that you're broadcasting age
fifty shades of gray,
while my face is turning violet
from your radio silence.
You've gone radio silent baby
Feels like you're turning the dials on me
And the airwaves that you're broadcasting age
fifty shades of gray,
while my face is turning violet
from your radio silence
Going on autopilot
with your radio silence
Adjusting to the quiet
of your radio silence.

A hopeful tune about trying to stay together.
lyrics
[Verse 1]
Two weeks
You wouldn't see me
You wouldn't speak
I hit the ceiling
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings
I wasn't being me
I wasn't listening
I see
Now that you're angry
What you need is some understanding
I'm trying
I keep on calling, but
No one's picking up
Your phone keeps ringing
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But I know we're going down to the same bar tonight
I guess some things never change
And I know we're gonna be dancing all alone tonight
So let me take you aside
Look in your eyes and say
[Chorus]
I wanna make it up to you
Maybe if I make out with you
Baby, I'm gonna make up with you
That's it, as long as we make it
[Verse 2]
You've been down in your basement
I'm wondering
Just where your face went
It's killing me
You need your space when I've kept my mind open
I've been so patient
Warned you
Of the box I was put in
That there was more to me
And everyone goes running
I'm a good friend
I'm a good person
But if you keep digging, you'll hit emotion
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I'm thinking maybe if we talked it out
Be kinder to ourselves
I know there's still a little bit of love allowed
So let me show you how this can work out
[Chorus]
I wanna make it up to you
Maybe if I make out with you
Baby, I'm gonna make up with you
That's it, as long as we make it
[Bridge]
Please let me
Say I'm sorry
Please let me
Explain my side of it
Please let me
Be better, show you what I can do
I'll make it up to you
[Chorus]
I wanna make it up to you
Maybe if I make out with you
Baby, I'm gonna make up with you
That's it, as long as we make it
I wanna make it up to you
Maybe if I make out with you
Baby, I'm gonna make up with you
That's it, as long as we make it
As long as we make it

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Biting my lips
I wanna change everything about myself
Was it a blip?
Or was it the wake up call I needed?
Staring at the walls
Picturing it all for days
And questioning all of it
Questioning all of it
[Pre-chorus]
Gotta do it all on my own now
I can't ask for help
Don't Bother
Gotta do it all on my own now
I can't ask for help
Don't bother
[Chorus]
I don't wanna bother you
(Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo)
I don't wanna bother you
(Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo)
[Verse 2]
"Do what you love"
It's not as easy as you might think
Never enough
I'm always sacrificing something
Staring at the walls
Picturing it all for days
And questioning all of it
I'm questioning all of it
Oh-oh-oh
[Pre-chorus]
Gotta do it all on my own now
I can't ask for help
Don't Bother
Gotta do it all on my own now
I can't ask for help
Don't bother
[Chorus]
I don't wanna bother you
(Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo)
I don't wanna bother you
(Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo)
I don't wanna bother you
(Gotta do it all on my own now, I can't ask for help, don't bother)
I don't wanna bother you
(Gotta do it all on my own now, I can't ask for help, don't bother)
I don't wanna bother you
(Gotta do it all on my own now, I can't ask for help, don't bother)
I don't wanna bother you
(Gotta do it all on my own now, I can't ask for help, don't bother)
I don't wanna bother you

[Verse 1]
The most fascinating specimen I've ever texted
He insists on being friends with all his exes
Find me at a party acting interested
And I wanna take him home but he's already left yeah,
[Pre-Chorus/Chorus]
And I'm not mad
I'm just confused
Should I feel bad?
Have I been used?
I'm not mad
I'm just confused
I'm not mad
I just love you,
[Verse 2]
Talking over drinks something like six months later
He's seeing someone new and she sounds good on paper
He says he "doesn't love her but he doesn't hate her"
I lean in and say, "Well then maybe you shouldn't date her",
[Pre-Chorus/Chorus]
And I'm not mad
I'm just confused
Should I feel bad?
Have I been used?
I'm not mad
I'm just confused
I'm not mad
I just love you,
[Bridge]
I'm gonna have to find a decoder ring
If you never get out of my dreams,
[Verse 3]
He says, "Let's get out of here" around 10:30
"There's a shortcut through the park but it might be dirty"
Suddenly we're making out against a tree
And it's all I ever wanted but there's something missing,
[Pre-Chorus/Chorus]
And I'm not mad
I'm just confused
Should I feel bad?
Have I been used?
I'm not mad
I'm just confused
I'm not mad
(I'm not mad)
Yeah I'm not mad
I'm just confused
Should I feel bad?
Have I been used?
I'm not mad (I'm not mad)
I'm just confused
I'm not mad
I just love you.

Mess Up
03:58

|
Taking time out of my night 'cause you're standing on my steps
going on and on about how great we were.
Listening to your reasoning, trying to understand
why you think it'd be good to get back together.
After everything we put each other through?
Didn't you learn anything? What are you trying to do?
Asking me what I think, 'cause "What've we got to lose?"
But I'm holding on to the truth
'Cause we both know what's gonna happen...
[CHORUS]
I'll mess up, then you'll mess up,
then I'll mess up, then you'll mess up again.
So let's just say it's no one's fault,
things fell apart and
we can still be friends.
[VERSE 1]
You came up in conversation just the other day,
catching up over the phone with my sister.
She asked me why exactly we went our separate ways,
and suddenly I couldn't even remember.
After everything we put each other through?
Didn't I learn anything? What am I trying to do?
I'm starting to overthink, like what've I got to prove?
I've got to hold on to the truth
'Cause we both know what's gonna happen...
[CHORUS]
I'll mess up, then you'll mess up,
then I'll mess up, then you'll mess up again.
So let's just say it's no one's fault,
things fell apart and
we can still be friends.
Oh why you doin' this to me?
No I won't give in so easily,
just got to the 5th stage of grief and
I'm not going back.
Why you doin' this to me?
You know I give in so easily,
you know I give in so easily
(easily, easily...)
[BRIDGE]
Taking time out of your night cause I'm standing on your steps
going on and on about how great we were...
Well I think it's gonna happen
[CHORUS]
I'll mess up, then you'll mess up,
then I'll mess up, then you'll mess up again.
So let's just say it's no one's fault,
things fell apart and
we can still be friends.
Oh why you doin' this to me?
no I won't give in so easily
(I'll mess up, then you'll mess up,
then I'll mess up, then you'll mess up)
Oh why you doin' this to me?
no I won't give in so easily
(I'll mess up, then you'll mess up,
then I'll mess up, then you'll mess up...)
