Tell Me Something

A penny for my thoughts you say, you can keep the change If they're truth or if they're fiction they're worth about the same If it's a lie you're after I'll go put on the mask But if it's the truth you're looking for I hope you don't regret you asked But ok, fine, really it's alright I'll keep taking punches until your arms get tired But alright, fine, really it's ok You just sit there staring 'til you figure out what to say So tell me something Give me words for once that mean a little more than nothing I think I know it's been long enough So while this love is still intact Tell me something that you can't take back Words come to me when it comes to you I hope I choose them right If you'd use yours and talk to me then we wouldn't have to fight But putting words on paper ain't the same as hand in hand But the written are the only ones you seem to understand But ok, fine, really it's alright Just sit there in silence and we'll waste another night But alright, fine, really it's ok Your face keeps getting longer and it's older from the strain So tell me something Give me words for once that mean a little more than nothing I think I know it's been long enough So while this love is still intact Tell me something that you can't take back So dig your heels a little deeper, You can't see that something's missing Like a line coming off of the page, it's better lived than written So tell me something Give me words for once that mean a little more than nothing I think I know it's been long enough So while this love is still intact Tell me something that you can't take back Tell me something that you can't take back
