Lyrics

You're fluent in the language
Of leaving things unsaid
I've memorized the outlines
Of your fingers in my head
You make love like you mean it
Then pull away in fear
But darling you know distance
Is just a way to disappear
Oh the avoidant
Don't let anyone too close
Cause what if they see you
Oh but worse what if they don't
And the hardest thing you'll ever do is stay
Oh but the saddest thing you'll ever lose is me
Maybe we're too different
Said behind the veil of shame
Of whatever else you need to tell yourself
To sleep again
You talk of freedom like a cure
But freedom's never free
Because when you wake to emptiness
That echo will be me
Oh the avoidant
Don't let anyone too close
Cause what if they see you
Oh but worse what if they don't
And the hardest thing you'll ever do is stay
Oh but the saddest thing you'll ever lose is me
The little things that give you away
Lingering glances words you won't say
The way you ramble when we reach the door
Can scent your plea for me to stay a little longer
Oh the avoidant
Always two steps away
Kiss me once goodbye
And I swear this time I'll leave
Oh the avoidant
Don't let anyone too close
Cause what if they see you
Oh but worse what if they don't
And the hardest thing you'll ever do is stay
Oh but the saddest thing you'll ever lose is me
