Ten Digits Away

I shouldn't think like this, but I know
That you're not driving home without the same thoughts goin' through your head
I don't want to be the one to
Bring this to its natural end
To say nothing is self-destructive
Your phone is ringing, don't you crawl into bedI know it's easier to say
Let's keep it simple, safe, mundane
Went through the motions of our needs
Now you look through me
We can live our separate lives
But if there ever comes a time
Just know I'm 10 digits away from what you wanted to say
To meYou shouldn't think like this
But you know
It gets harder to decipher when there's feelings involved
Do we smother or uncover?
Or just let it dissolve and
Yeah, I want to be the one to
Bring this to its natural end
No more bluffing or saying nothing
Your phone is screaming, don't you crawl into bedI know it's easier to say
Let's keep it simple, safe, mundane
Went through the motions of our needs
Now you look through me
We can live our separate lives
But if there ever comes a time
Just know I'm 10 digits away from what you wanted to say
To meYou know it all meant so much more to me
My favorite alibi?
You were a want and not a need
And in this ballad about dignity
You're a lullaby
That's been singing me to sleepI know it's easier to say
Let's keep it simple, safe, mundane
Yea I saw it in your face
When you were pushing me away
Just know I'm 10 digits away
From what you wanted to say
To me
