Connection Lyrics

I'll never learn that lying's only gonna get you burned

Acting like my warm heart is in fact made of stone

Keeping it chilled just to get on by

Oh, I know the embers turn to ash every time

How do you do it with little consequence?

My mind is fried

Teach me your ways to keep yourself detached

Leave me my pride

Don't you hold me like that

Don't you dare even look at me that way

I'm tired of sitting here waiting for my phone to mention your name

No don't you treat me so well

Don't make me feel like I've just made your day

If you're just gonna run on home forgetting that you ever even came

Stop lying to yourself

You cannot fake a connection

I do not need your protection

But oh these butterflies and to surmise

I see right through your disguise

So if you haven't got them yet

I guess I'm the fool

How do you do it with little consequence?

My mind is has tried

Teach me your ways to keep yourself detached

Leave me my pride

Don't you hold me like that

Don't you dare even look at me that way

I'm tired of sitting here waiting for my phone to mention your name

No don't you treat me so well

Don't make me feel like I've just made your day

If you're just gonna run on home forgetting that you ever even came

Stop lying to yourself

You cannot fake a connection

I do not need your protection

Oh these butterflies

Stop lying to yourself

You cannot fake a connection

I do not need your protection

Oh these butterflies

Still waiting, still waiting

Don't make me feel this way

So don't you hold me like that

Don't you dare even look at me that way

I'm tired of sitting here waiting for my phone to mention your name

No don't you treat me so well

Don't make me feel like I've just made your day

If you're just gonna run on home, forgetting that you ever even came
