Up to your old tricks, we fall into our same old ways
These patterns we wanna break, but maybe some things cannot change
You got that look in your eye like you would kill me if you could
Like I'm standing between you and who you might have been in a perfect world
You say I act like a jerk when your mother's around
I think you're just projecting, overly sensitive, how you like me now?
It takes two of us to argue, and maybe none of us is right
But who will take responsibility when there is no opposite side? No black and white
Hyperempathy
Hyperempathy
You say that's gaslighting after your second shot at me
Let's just keep being darling this early in the day
But I'm getting too analytical, trying to win a great debate
Still I acknowledge your feelings and I validate your complaint
Hyperempathy
Hyperempathy
You exit to the bathroom so I give you a little space
Looking in the mirror, rubbing toner on your face
Now it's time to shoot my shot, fall down on my sword
I just hope I can diffuse the situation without getting blood on the floor
She says she's exhausted, and I hold her around the waist
She lets me unconsciously, and I sense a little grace
And I don't make assumptions, I just listen, don't react
'Cause one false move could take us back to black
Her beauty is fragile, her composure is statuesque
How she recovers is a mystery, I don't ask for forgiveness yet
But I know without her isn't, harmony has been restored
In these moments I am a beggar crawling on all fours
It's a balancing act, it's a high-flying show
It's a death-defying pact, it's a life-affirming move
Up to our old tricks, we fall into our same old ways
These patterns we wanna break, but maybe some things shouldn't change
You got that look in your eye like you would kill me if you could
Like I'm standing between you and who you might have been in a perfect world
Hyperempathy
Hyperempathy
Hyperempathy
