Bite Gently

We could be four years strong by now
And far from these four walls
But you’re out there
And my attempts at sleep went nowhere
When you drain my phone
I still hear it through my home
And the television can’t turn off
Or I’m alone, here
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
We’ve been four years gone and now
You’re violent with your words
For someone so damn fragile
Like you know your bite’s worse
But trust me, I have fight left
For whoever comes next
And she’ll ask why there’s TV on
When we’re alone here
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
It’s automatic for you
Just tell me what to do
It’s you and me or panic
It’s black and white or blue
It’s a-u-t-o-matic
I’m static, make me move
Or you can help me vanish
That would help you forget to
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
Seems so simple, it didn’t seem so
Hard to deal at the start
