Lyrics
If you wanna act careless, I'll show you just how careless I can be
If you want to act carelessly, I will demonstrate my own carelessness.
But I'm eating my pride and trynna hide that side of me
However, I'm swallowing my pride and attempting to conceal that aspect of myself.
Cause I know that you want this, it's just not easy to see
Because I understand that you desire this relationship, but it's not readily apparent.
But I see right through you babe, cause you look like me
Yet, I can perceive your true intentions because you resemble me.
Now show me that you want this, now that you got me don't let my heart turn cold again
Now prove to me that you're committed since you have me, prevent my emotions from becoming distant again.
I know we're afraid of, of getting close, if we fail we can try again
I acknowledge that we fear becoming intimate; if we fail, we can attempt to reconnect.
You don't know why I act like I do, and I'm sure you've got your reasons too
You don't comprehend why I behave as I do, and I'm certain you have your own justifications.
But we can't get deep with short phrases, nothing but blank empty pages
However, we can't delve into deeper matters with brief expressions; it's akin to having empty pages.
Maybe you don't know what you need, but baby like this you're losing me
Maybe you are unaware of what you truly require, but behaving this way is causing me to drift away.
Cause we can't get deep with short phrases, nothing but blank empty pages
Because we cannot explore deeper emotions and connections using only short and shallow interactions, leaving us with nothing substantial, just like blank empty pages.
Now baby hold up, give me just a minute, I took a picture of the future and I think I saw you in it
Wait a moment, let's pause; I envisioned a future, and I believe I saw you as a part of it.
Baby hold up, we ain't competing, pushing and pulling will only make me leave and´
Hold on, we're not in competition; pushing and pulling will only drive me away.
Now show me that you want this, now that you got me don't let my heart turn cold again
Now demonstrate your commitment to this relationship; don't let my feelings grow cold once more.
I know we're afraid of, of getting close, if we fail we can try again
I understand our fear of intimacy; if we fail, we can make another attempt at connecting.
You don't know why I act like I do, and I'm sure you've got your reasons too
You don't grasp why I act as I do, and I'm sure you have your reasons as well.
But we can't get deep with short phrases, nothing but blank empty pages
However, we cannot delve into deeper emotional territory with superficial communication, resulting in empty, unfulfilled interactions.
Maybe you don't know what you need, but baby like this you're losing me
Perhaps you are unaware of your true needs, but behaving this way is causing me to distance myself.
Cause we can't get deep with short phrases, nothing but blank empty pages
Because we are unable to reach profound emotional connections using only shallow conversations, leaving us with nothing meaningful, akin to blank empty pages.
Now show me that you want this, now that you got me don't let my heart turn cold again
Now prove to me that you're committed since you have me, prevent my emotions from becoming distant again.
I know we're afraid of, of getting close, if we fail we can try again
I acknowledge our fear of intimacy; if we fail, we can make another attempt at connection.
You don't know why I act like I do, and I'm sure you've got your reasons too
You don't understand why I behave as I do, and I'm certain you have your own justifications.
But we can't get deep with short phrases, nothing but blank empty pages
However, we cannot delve into deeper matters with brief expressions; it's akin to having empty pages.
Maybe you don't know what you need, but baby like this you're losing me
Maybe you are unaware of what you truly require, but behaving this way is causing me to drift away.
Cause we can't get deep with short phrases, nothing but blank empty pages
Because we cannot explore deeper emotions and connections using only short and shallow interactions, leaving us with nothing substantial, just like blank empty pages.
