iii Spellitout from Melodrama2009 / Saintaugustine by central standard time

He's asleep by seven thirty
I stay awake to stop the hurting
In my head, sound alarm bells in my heart

I don't talk the way I used to
I stutter and fall over new
Vocabulary like I love you and I'm scared

I dont wanna spell it out
I don't wanna try a different method
Getting through my thick skull into yours
I don't wanna spell it out
I don't wanna say it w ith my chest
Cus the words out in the open cut like knives

he's awake at 11:45
i wonder if he's still alive
cus ive been alone since 9 again

i don't love the way im supposed to
i stutter and blush and pick
at skin until im torn apart again

i dont wanna spell it out
i dont wanna try a single thing to
fix whats wrong and crawl into your arms
i dont wanna spell it out
i dont wanna cry again cus i know
once i start ill never wanna stop
once i start i never wanna stop
stop
