what are you afraid of 

she said "let's go home 
i'm tired and i'm only 
holding on to you because 
i need someone to listen closely 
to the words i say 
i know i'm no good at composing 
all my thoughts, i pray 
you'll let me know if i'm imposing" 

what are you afraid of 
talking to you is my biggest fear 
what are you afraid of 
that the words i say won't be the ones you hear

what are you afraid of

fly by off north lamar 
we're driving downtown in your orange car 
i'm tired and you're tired too 
but it's easier being tired with you 

i let this city eat me inside out 
give me a dose of morphine, let me shout 
at the top of your lungs, the whole world's in our mouths 
we'll blow smoke til we're gone, let our souls fizzle out 

fly by off north lamar 
we're driving downtown in your orange car 
i'm tired and you're tired too 
but it's easier being tired with you 

black eye, we're two for two 
i'm down one shot but you've had a few 
it's a nightmare but we're on our way 
we're gonna find out why someday 

and when we're down and out of play 
we'll scream at each other til we're almost okay 
forget the sound, don't call my name 
just bring me salvation in the form of your face

a stream of consciousness, i don't know what to do with this 
i heard from you on monday night after a week of oversight 
i wish you'd only let me see a version of you more discreet 
there's some place i would rather be, of this we can agree 

i used to think of you on days that i had more to do 
of rain that fell down on the streets and soaked your laundry and your sheets 
but we were sitting in my car, we never did go very far 
there's someone else i'd rather be when you are next to me 

rain fell down on your face 
i hope your laundry blows away

if everything i said was met with 
silence of first degree 
don't you think it might be better 
to cut down this olive tree 

what will it take for you to 
hear the words i can't speak 
you know i'll just misconstrue your 
silence for harsh critique 

why do i need a reason 
to be polite 
where's the breeze in 
the air tonight 
won't you leave 
right before my eyes 
need a reason 

why do i need a reason 
to stay the night 
i don't believe in 
your candlelight 
you fell asleep 
right before my eyes 
i need a reason

close the car door, just keep driving, you don't tell me anymore 
all the things i want to hear, i don't know what i'm trying for 
close your eyes and paint a picture of my heart and what it stores 
you don't focus on the right things, you don't see me anymore 

you don't see me anymore 

hey, don't start crying, i'll be here 
on the street side when you come by 
i won't try to disappear 
even though you make me feel 
like a shadow on the walls 
of the rooms inside your home 
i'm the echo when you call 

stumble forward, you don't answer when i show up at your door 
you don't hear the words i say, i don't want to be ignored 
listen closely to my voice and in your mind try to record 
all the noise inside my heart, you don't hear me anymore 

you don't hear me anymore 

hey, don't start crying, i'll be here 
on the street side when you come by 
i won't try to disappear 
even though you make me feel 
like a shadow on the walls 
of the rooms inside your home 
i'm the echo when you call

echo

i loved you in pairs of two 
your toothbrush was pink and mine was blue 
your jewelry and new tattoo 
bumblebees and lilies remind me of you 

i felt you in pairs of two 
the lemon in your hair and the scent of your room 
your makeup and sweet perfume 
violins and sweaters remind me of you

sitting at a coffee shop 
"tell me about your day" 
flipping through your notes 
we start to escalate again 
i never seem to understand 
any of it in the end 

i replay each moment slowly 
frame by frame - a different story 
in my mind i'd like to change 
everything i said that day 

talking on a summer night 
"we can do it your way" 
turns into a fight 
i start to raise my voice again 
you never seem to understand 
any of it in the end 

i replay each moment slowly 
frame by frame - a different story 
in my mind i'd like to change 
everything i said that day 

and i still remember every sentence 
that i said that made you cry 
and if i could go back to evening

lyrics

sometimes i wish i could
exist inside a different plane
nothingness seems like a gift
when your outside doesn't match your brain

i've got ten thousand faces and
confidence that comes in waves
i carry it with good intent
in case you see me a different way

but i'm not complaining
though i wish i had someone to blame
cause what's the use in good intent
when the good and bad all seem the same?

if i'm always changing, how do you know me?
if you never see me, how will you love me?
if i'm always changing, how do you know me?
if you never see me, how will you love me?
