If I could read you, would I want to? Lyrics

Pull apart the pieces of my heart

Recognise that all I am was hidden from the start

If I could read you, would I want to?

Minimise my end before I ever made a start

A part of me just wants to let it go

Another part says if I do, I’ll compromise it all

If I could read you, would I want to?

Momentary peace is all I want

Why do I always take you for granted?

I understand you needed some time

You knew it wouldn’t last too much longer

But how can you say everything’s fine?

I never let you in on my secrets

It feels like I am falling apart

You told me everything that you wanted

I told you everything that you are
