[Verse 1]
I take back what I said
I'm not ready to give in
To wishful thinking
I might be the one to place
All my eggs into one basket
But it still feels like my best bet
[Verse 2]
You've gotten so good
At being right from the start
I wish I could be fooled
By colours we choose to use
To draw inside thick contours
[Verse 3]
Today feels different
An all-new kind of effort
What happens with flat words
Now that we've entered
A space where intent comes first
[Chorus]
I know your words are beautiful but I don't need to hear them now
Sounds flowing down in waterfalls
This is just for show
This is just a bluff
This is nothing personal
Let the tension grow
Till I'm brave enough
To trust those words will bring me back somehow
[Verse 4]
What's left of the ancient wisdom
We thought unfit for us
We're yielding under pressure
And I'm still waiting for more
I wish I could ease your mind
And see with a different light
Are we both part of the plan?
Isn't it more of the same?
[Verse 5]
Let's start with the things we know
Oh, we've been here before
Drink it hot, drink it cold
There's so much you can't control
Maybe there's nothing to it
There's nothing personal
[Chorus/Outro]
I know your words are beautiful but I don't need to hear them now
This is just for show
This is just a bluff
This is nothing personal
Let the tension grow
Till I'm brave enough
To trust those words will bring me back somehow
