Don’t want to say something 
I'll later regret
‘Cause I’m not trying to start an argument 
I can’t win
I’m okay with sleeping on the floor 
‘Cause I’m not trying to score 
In an argument i can’t win

On vacation, trips, in bars
I’m dumb enough to start
Discussions bigger than buildings

Low blow                                   
There's no need to tell me my dinner's getting cold

All I can do now, get through to her somehow
Thought out words take too long to leave my tongue
So I wanna take control I wanna say don’t talk just listen
Don’t talk just listen
Don’t talk just listen

You pick it up and get over yourself so very quick
When you tell me I'm a *bleeped*
And I embarrass you in restaurants
That leaves no room for dessert
You tell me I’m the worst 
For just asking what the problem was

Just go
They're staring at us like we're a circus show
Just leave
She said we'll finish this at home

All I can do now, get through to her somehow
Thought out words take too long to leave my tongue
So I wanna take control I wanna say don’t talk just listen
Don’t talk just listen
Don’t talk just listen
Don’t talk 
So I wanna take control I wanna say don’t talk just listen

Well I suppose you've heard enough by now
 You wanna tell me I’m the worst
When my intention is to stitch it up, I stick a knife in first
I suppose you heard enough words
I fix crisis, still I start the fights
It’s all so exhausting
I keep talking, talking, talking

What a lover I can be 
And I know its only me
Play with words on your plate
No more talking today
Sit up straight and just take a listen
