Upside

Don’t know where to start, like Galileo
Just shoot for the stars, don’t know where they go
Look up at the sun, feel like I’m hallucinating
I’m so tired of waiting, for shit to change

See I don’t know where you are, but I’m not leaving
Break off a piece of my heart, every time I hear that you’re so tired of
Breathing, believing, of seeing things that don’t make sense to you
You can hear the silence echo round the room

I should’ve known that you had reasons
Every step improves your balance in a world that’s so uneven
I know I’ve failed you, every time that you felt so alone, I know
I could have held you, but I didn’t see it

I told you there’s no way around it,
I’d be okay with drowning, see my smile’s upside down
Hope your emotions leave you tongue tied
Because I’m looking at the upside
Everything is prettier from down here

Don’t wanna say the wrong thing but I can feel your silence
I wondered just how you felt and you’d just “never mind” it
Say that you’re okay, okay so, let’s define it
Show me an upside if you find it

I don’t know what you’re looking for
And I haven’t experienced anything you’ve been through before
They you do it for em
Something about your body language I can’t translate when you perform
But maybe I’m overthinking
Maybe it’s over and I’m over thinking
Maybe I’m overbearing, I know I care what’s your opinion?
Not that I’d see it if you lied, by the way you make “I’m fine” sound so convincing
But that’s contradiction
I’ve heard of being drunk in love, tell me, what’s your addiction?
You can speak easy like prohibition, you know I’ll listen
Even when the only thing going for you is opposition (I tried)
You know I want to see you up, right?
I want to see how love lies through the tough times
I want you to turn a second to a lifetime
Want you to open up your mind’s eye and see the upside
