I know it's there, lit and burning to shine out
I know it's there, itchin', scratchin' just to shout buried treasure saved
Waiting for perfect breezes, perfect waves
When will you dare to wipe that furrow from your brow?
Can't get nowhere halfway
So I'll be here till you're brave, till you say

That you love me, that you love me

And ‘cause I'm left accountable for everything I gain
You've shown too many other ways for me to call it pain
This is just a stupid secret shared too many times
It's kinda like this thing that I would let go if I'm wise
Sorta like the way I feel that sometimes makes me cry
You look just like someone I know that cannot tell a lie
Cannot say, cannot say

That you love me, that you love me

If I could just convince myself of what I'd rather have
If I could just convince myself I'm better off, much better
With silence, with silence
