Talk Too Much

You talk too much
I can't hear my own thoughts
Over your performative opinions
I'll take it up with all your little minions
‘Cause they're afraid of you anyway

I think I'll pass, after all no one asked
I guess they don't have to
To get a piece of you tonight

Oh, I'll bet you’re fun at parties
Bet you’re the last one to leave

Why can't we call it even?
I worked so hard to scrub it clean and then
You fucked it up again
Got caught up in your head

What's the use in us playing pretend?
I'm holding more spite
Than anyone would recommend
It’s eating me alive
It's rotting my insides

You play too rough
Try to act so tough
With your silly regurgitated opinions
Speaking over the people
You say you're lifting
Oh, it's been years

And you talk too much
Always showing up with a round of verbal ammunition
Now I'm ganging up with all your little minions
‘Cause they're afraid of you
And I'm afraid of you

I guess that means you win
You're underneath my skin
And you've been comfortable there
For quite some time now
While I've been learning how to
Learning how to ignore you

Why can't we call it even?
I tried so hard to not be so mean
And then it started to make sense
Played the motions through my head

If you're the one who's always on the offense
No one’s gonna think to check inside your closet
Skeletons collecting dust
Sorted neatly, one by one

Why can't we call it even?
I worked so hard to scrub it clean and then
You fucked it up again
Got caught up in your head

What's the use in us playing pretend?
I'm holding more spite
Than anyone would recommend
It’s eating me alive
It's rotting my insides

Learning how to, learning how
Learning how to, learning how to ignore you
Learning how to ignore you
And people like you
And people like you
‘Cause people like you
They know how to get what they want

And people like you
They know how to get ahead
They’ll twist around what you never said
They’ll chase you back and forth again

People like you
They don’t like you
And if you want to
You could get the things that you like
