Under My Breath

(I'll be screaming three words in my head
Say it under my breath instead
'Cause I don't wanna come on too—)
Hot and heavy
You put on your jeans like you're breathing fainting
Waste to be around the bush
Not obsessing, 'least that's what I tell myself
Fuck, but I'm pretending
Mmm, I try to make colossal feelings of casual
Clinging on to my last bit of self-control
Mmm-mmm
I'll be screaming three words in my head
Say it under my breath instead
'Cause I don't wanna come on too—
What if it slips off my lips
Then everything goes to shit
Can't fix it
I don't wanna come on too strong
But I'm bound to spill my feelings
On the dinner table
Or in between the drink at the party
And I probably could've said it right before you left
But I intentionally forget to mention that I love you
I'm a cynic
Maybe something in the water makes me pessimistic
I'm tryna make it all make sense
Terrifying, throwing my heart out on the line
So I keep it in
Mmm, I try to make colossal feelings of casual
Clinging on to my last bit of self-control
Mmm, I know
I'll be screaming three words in my head
Say it under my breath instead
'Cause I don't wanna come on too—
What if it slips off my lips
Then everything goes to shit
Can't fix it
I don't wanna come on too strong
But I'm bound to spill my feelings
On the dinner table
Or in between the drink at the party
And I probably could've said it right before you left
But I intentionally forget to mention that I love you
Baby, I'm a walking, stalling, ticking, time-bomb
Ghosts I feel in the pockets of the silence
Or talking in my sleep
Drinking a coffee
I'll be screaming three words in my head
Say it under my breath instead
'Cause I don't wanna come on too—
What if it slips off my lips
Then everything goes to shit
Can't fix it
I don't wanna come on too strong
But I'm bound to spill my feelings
On the dinner table
Or in between the drink at the party
And I probably could've said it right before you left
But I intentionally forget to mention that I love you
