why can't i be honest
and unashamed
this isn't a fight
or me trying to blame
you for all this hurt
or pin you for my pain
its just about saying
what i need to say

it's not about trying to hurt you
or all about me
it's just saying how i feel
then hearing what you think
but i can't help but feel bad
as i begin to speak
this is more awkward than i thought
my voice sounds so weak

don't wanna make things bad
or help them get any worse
i just wanna sit you down
and share a couple words
i love what we've made here
so i wanna make it work
so if you wanna do the same
don't let me go unheard

because i feel like i'm out in the cold
and i'm  gonna die from a lack of movement
when i see things i shouldn't
i shrink into nothing and feel stupid
like why did i ever think
you would wanna do this
all i'm saying is if you really want this
i need you to prove it
