Loner Phase

They're calling you a genius
 Is that why you're acting so competitive?
 And even if they mean it
 Don't let the feeling get to your head
 I really wanna call you
 Never cleaned up the mess from the last time we met
 The roof is gonna fall through
 I'll stay out in the cold all alone instead
 If you think you can, reach out your hand
 Like all is well and noting changed
 But I went through hell to watch you in outer-space
 The wine is in the basement
 So why can't I hide away and hibernate
 I'm sleeping for the moment
 And we're so afraid of getting worse with age
 If you think you can, reach out your hand
 Like all is well and nothing changed
 I went through hell to watch you in outer-space
 And I'm so careful, I got out of the way
 I'm so grateful, just to be, just to be able to say
 Won't you give me distance
 To swallow the words you put on my plate
 And maybe then you'd listen
 And I can get out of this one act play
 You see me waving my white flag
 You see me waving my white flag
 Won't you ever wanna take me back
 Won't you ever wanna take me back
