bored like me [demo] lyrics

Please listen closely

I think you think you know what I want, but you don't

To want to know me

Is to ask me to ask you to tell, but you won't

And so we sit here

And talk in circles

Pointed politeness

'Til we turn purple

Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls and talk like we've been married forty years?

And so we dance, dear

Nose to nose but wanting to be mouth to mouth

Give it a chance, dear

Break the ice if there's ice, or at least ask me how

Because we sit here

Both with this knowing

There's something under

Forever growing

Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls

And not talk like we're married fifty years?

I know you're bored like me

So tell me kindly

I wonder if you love like I love loving you

I'm going in blindly

So make the risk want the risk like I want you to do

Just scrap the questions take off the masks

Let the curtain fall and lead me to the dark

Oh, darling are you there say a word

I will not use this mouth for chatter anymore

Oh, I know you're bored like me
