Denial is What He Calls Me
Denial.
Is that your new favorite word?
Whenever I talk trash to you,
my goal is to leave your feelings hurt.
But you just joke like it's a flirt.
I guess that's just how we work.
Denial.
You say that when I say "no".
Yes, there is a reason I haven't let you go,
but there's 10 reasons I won't bring you home.
Shit, I'm better off alone.
What is there for me to deny?
I haven't gotten over the days you made me cry.
I say I've grown up, but the insecurity
will make me another guy's crazy bride.
You are the only man on earth
that I feel I cannot outsmart,
and you are the last man on earth
that I will let close to my heart.
I could never put our experiences into one simple word.
I would never throw it away.
I'd just whind up digging the dirt
of our shallow grave.
What I need to dig up is proof
that I'm not playing a game.
If I did that, would you start denying me?
I'm not that brave.
Denial.
Is that your new favorite word?
If I said "I hate you", would your feelings be hurt?
I'm not saying I really do, but I just wanna know
what weapon I have at my disposal
cause we both know you can easily use "denial".
