Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) Shadows lengthen on the bedroom floor Another late night tapping at my door You spin your stories, polished and so bright But the filament inside me gives no light I don't wanna break your ego, or scar your pride Don't wanna be mean, or put a hitch in your stride...but... (Pre-Chorus) This polite facade, it's wearing thin The space between us, where do I begin? You see a kindness, a gentle hand I lend But the truth's a current I can't transcend (Chorus) No phantom flutter, no dizzying high No supernova blooming in my eye I don't get butterflies when we talk, no No sudden fever when you start to walk, no I don't feel heat in my cheeks when you speak, it's true And I don't get stuck in a fog when I think of you (Verse 2) I know you may get confused when I say things Like "honey," "sweetie," and "darlin'" on soft wings But that's just Southern hospitality, a practiced art It doesn't mean a claim upon my heart, not a part Your just not my flavor of person, nothing personal, you see Just a different rhythm playing inside of me (Pre-Chorus) This careful dance we do, it's almost cruel To let you linger by this stagnant pool You read the signals, twisted in your head Ignoring the silence, the words unsaid (Chorus) No phantom flutter, no dizzying high No supernova blooming in my eye I don't get butterflies when we talk, no No sudden fever when you start to walk, no I don't feel heat in my cheeks when you speak, it's true And I don't get stuck in a fog when I think of you (Bridge) Maybe you're thinking I'm wanting more than just Hanging out, talking, and lifting each other up when we get down Sorry...but that's a thought you should drown That fragile hope you clutch, it's bound to fray This isn't leading where you think it might someday (Chorus) No phantom flutter, no dizzying high No supernova blooming in my eye You don't give me butterflies when we talk, no No sudden fever when you start to walk, no You don't give me heat in my cheeks when you speak, it's true And I don't get stuck in a fog when I think of you (Outro) No butterflies... no heat... no fog... Just the quiet truth, like a closing log...
