In Front Of Your TV
Unspoken Desires: In Front Of Your TV
Lyrics
I don't need you to spell it out for me
I don't need explicit explanations from you
I've gotten fluent in your body language
I understand your non-verbal communication well
So I'll just skate around the block a few times
I'll casually skate around the neighborhood a few times
And then I'll be on my way
Afterward, I'll depart
It was nice when you were dying for me
It was pleasant when you were deeply interested in me
I guess I played a little too hard to get
Perhaps I made it too challenging for you to pursue
And you've got one short attention span
You have a limited attention span
Oh I fucked it up, but can I stay?
Despite my mistakes, can I still remain?
I need you to see
I want you to realize
Just how good we could be
Recognize the potential of our relationship
I know that you're over me
I acknowledge you've moved on
But maybe I could fall asleep
But maybe I could find solace in sleep
In front of your tv
While watching your television
In case you need
In case you decide to make a fresh start
To turn a new leaf
Oh, never mind, it's hopeless
Oh, forget it, its pathetic
Expressing frustration and giving up
Once or twice a day I think of spilling over
Occasionally, I contemplate revealing my suppressed emotions
All the thoughts that I keep locked up inside my head
About the feelings locked inside my mind
About the way that you felt that night
Regarding the way you felt that particular night
Oh, am I alone in that?
Am I the only one experiencing this?
I'm addicted to your cold shoulder
I find myself drawn to your emotional distance
Being a masochist is all I've ever known
Being a masochist is my familiar pattern
God, I wish that was something I'd outgrow
I wish I could overcome this tendency
But out of reach is just my type
But unattainable is what attracts me
I need you to see
I want you to understand
Just how good we could be
Envision the potential greatness of our connection
I know that you're over me
Acknowledging your emotional detachment
But maybe I could fall asleep
Perhaps I can find peace in sleep
In front of your tv
While in front of your television
In case you need
In case you decide to start anew
To turn a new leaf
I want you to understand
I need you to see
Envision the potential greatness of our connection
Just how good we could be
Acknowledging your emotional detachment
I know that you're over me
Perhaps I can find peace in sleep
But maybe I could fall asleep
While in front of your television
In front of your tv
In case you decide to start anew
In case you need
I want you to understand
To turn a new leaf
Envision the potential greatness of our connection
Oh, forget it, its pathetic
Oh, never mind, it's hopeless
