Loved Ones (Excerpts From Speeches Of How Great You Were, And Will Never Be Again) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
I love trying to make conversation
When I could care less of what you're doing
What are you doing?
And I know you never cared 'till now
Cared 'till now
All my days go back to when you would scream
And it froze me
And it froze me
Guess the screaming
It runs in the family
[Pre-Chorus]
You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin
Until we don't resemble each other anymore
[Chorus]
Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
So now I see the tears welling up
Finally you care
I've waited, I've waited, I've waited
For this
Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
I love trying to make conversation
When I could care less of what you're doing
What are you doing?
And I know you never cared 'till now
Cared 'till now
All my days go back to when you would scream
And it froze me
And it froze me
Guess the screaming
It runs in the family
[Pre-Chorus]
You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin
Until we don't resemble each other anymore
[Chorus]
Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
So now I see the tears welling up
Finally you care
I've waited, I've waited, I've waited
For this
[Bridge]
It's always been over
It's always been over
It's always been over for us
A single tear, a last resort for all who've never felt
You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin
Until we don't resemble each other anymore
[Chorus]
Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for these 20 years
[Outro]
If I could flip this table
I'd stab you, I'd stab you
With every word that lied its way out of your head
It's always been over
It's always been over
It's always been over for us
A single tear, a last resort for all who've never felt
You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin
Until we don't resemble each other anymore
[Chorus]
Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for these 20 years
[Outro]
If I could flip this table
I'd stab you, I'd stab you
With every word that lied its way out of your head
