say it first

Always been one for
Biting my tongue ‘til
Blood starts to fill my mouth

And oh how romantic
We both like to panic
When there’s something to talk about

I wanna say you feel the same
I hesitate ‘cause I’m afraid you don’t
Wish I could get inside your head
And write what we been thinkin’ on a note

I’ll say it in the shower
And I’ll say it when I’m drunk
I’ll remind you every hour how I say it just for fun
I’ll say it when you wake up
While you’re putting on your makeup
I always finish last but you know I say it back

You say it first
You say it first

Let’s pop some champagne
And rip off the band-aid
It’s easy when we’re fucked up

Now would it be tragic
Would it ruin the magic
If I stole the words off your tongue?

I wanna say you feel the same
I hesitate ‘cause I’m afraid you don’t
Wish I could get inside your head
And write what we been thinkin’ on a note

I’ll say it in the shower
And I’ll say it when I’m drunk
I’ll remind you every hour how I say it just for fun
I’ll say it when you wake up
While you’re putting on your makeup
I always finish last but you know I say it back

You say it first
(‘Cause you know I say it back)

You say it first
You say it first
You say it first

Always been one for
Biting my tongue ‘til
The blood starts to fill my mouth
