Something’s stoppin’ me
Am
Something's shuttin' my mouth

Every time you say things first I say them back but it doesn’t count
C
Deep rooted
Am
But I don’t remember why
C Am
Your hand on my lap made me shake and on the train home, I cried
 
[Chorus]
C
If it’s what I dream I want
Am
Why can’t I let myself have it?
C
If it’s what I dream I need
Am
Why can’t I let myself feel it?
C
If it’s what I dream I want
Am
Why can’t I let myself like it?
C
If it’s what I dream I need

C
You asked if your hands were cold
Am
I didn’t notice till you pointed it out
C Am
I felt my brain turn in folds and then it was all I could think about
C
I like your skin
Am
Just not mine
C Am
If I can’t let you in, am I wasting both of our time?

C Am
I’m only numb to the touch that’s not meant to cause pain
C Am
I don’t recognize the feeling, so it just goes away
C Am
Am I scared of you or am I scared that I’m not?
C Am
I’m lonely when you’re here, I’m lonely a lot
C Am
Can’t tell if I’m killing time or if this time is killing me
C Am
Convincing myself you’re lying and you hate me really
C Am
Is this how it is? Is this who I am?
C Am
Guilty from a kiss, rejecting your hand
C Am
It’s always the same, why can’t I change?
C Am
Why can’t I change? Why can’t I change?
