you do not trust me
but you dont trust anyone
i really like you
cos youre not just anyone
and that doesnt mean
i deserve special treatment
don't need to meet your mom
but introduce your demons to me
let 'em out put 'em on full display
so they can stretch their legs
i'll bring out mine, they can play
you know you gotta take 'em out for walks
every day
or they will get rambunctious
and start to bay
at the moon at night
very soon i might
say something to you
that'll prove you right
every nasty thing you assumed
all along was the truth
and i'm just as abusive
and base and abrasive and basic
as all of the people you disassociate with
on a daily basis
i wanted to present as adjacent to you
but i'm not
but let me try
i'm falling in love with you

let me in
inside your world
i promise
it won't hurt

i'll go slow
i'll listen
just tell me
when i should quicken the pace

i will read all the signs on your face
i will be so attentive there will be no pain
just have faith in me baby i'll show you the way
it can be, if you let me in baby i'll stay

your hesitation
i understand
our hands touch
only by accident
but i feel a spark
but it's more like fireworks
but it feels like a time bomb
lodged in my heart
only one in there
with it is you
and i wish you would
red yellow or blue
cut one of the wires
any one of them
bring this to an end
if you're really a friend

i never wanna put any pressure on you
but it's hard to pretend
that where we stand
is a position that i'm okay with
i can't look at you
without thinking of locking lips
and i dont wanna try to influence you
but i'm afraid of being direct
and i know you are too
but i don't wanna regret this
so i'm gonna try to be honest about what i want for us

let me in
inside your world
i promise
it won't hurt

i'll go slow
i'll listen
just tell me
when i should quicken the pace

i will read all the signs on your face
i will be so attentive there will be no pain
just have faith in me baby i'll show you the way
it can be, if you let me in baby i'll stay

but if i'm not something
that youd be open to
if love just isnt part of
my future with you
if you cant imagine
saying i love you too
no harm no foul
no pressure yeah we're still cool

i guess. no, i know how that sounds
look i'm trying
to make myself be more okay
with how things are now
knowing that's the way that they'll stay
but that's worst case though

if there's a chance
that the answer's not no

let me in
inside your world
i promise
it won't hurt

i'll go slow
i'll listen
just tell me
when i should quicken the pace

i will read all the signs on your face
i will be so attentive there will be no pain
just have faith in me baby i'll show you the way
it can be, if you let me in baby i'll stay
