IRL by Fickle Friends Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I really like your messages
They're so intelligent
We've been at this for too long
It's getting aggressive
Wish I could see the way you feel
But just from a distance
What are your intentions?
I'm bored of guessing
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wanna know
If anybody could be holding you back
Is there somebody else that you think about?
I'm in the dark and I don't like that
Or how you cannot handle being face to face
Or keep communicating but you like the space
I'm in the dark and I don't like that
[Chorus]
Can we just speak in real life?
Conversation I can follow
Conversation I can swallow
When I know
That we could speak in real time
Conversation in the same room
'Cause I don't wanna lose you
When I know
That we could speak in real life
(That we could speak in real life)
[Verse 2]
I wanna be alone with you
I need interaction
In the current situation, I'll never get it
Well isn't it nice to be out in the open?
Isn't it nice to just live in the moment?
You think so
But it doesn't feel right though
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wanna know
If anybody could be holding you back
Is there somebody else that you think about?
I'm in the dark and I don't like that
Or how you cannot handle being face to face
Or keep communicating but you like the space
I'm in the dark and I don't like that
[Chorus]
Can we just speak in real life?
Conversation I can follow
Conversation I can swallow
When I know
That we could speak in real time
Conversation in the same room
'Cause I don't wanna lose you
When I know
That we could speak in real life
(That we could speak in real life)
[Bridge]
It's gonna fizzle out, yeah
Ended before we started
Wait for the world to turn
Wait till the sun don't burn
'Cause you're worth a holding on to
[Chorus]
(Can we just speak in real life?)
(Conversation I can follow)
(Conversation I can swallow)
(When I know)
That we could speak in real time
Conversation in asylum
'Cause I don't wanna lose you
When I know
That we could speak in real life
(That we could speak in real life)
[Outro]
Can we just, can we just
Can we just speak in real life?
I really like your messages
They're so intelligent
We've been at this for too long
It's getting aggressive
Wish I could see the way you feel
But just from a distance
What are your intentions?
I'm bored of guessing
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wanna know
If anybody could be holding you back
Is there somebody else that you think about?
I'm in the dark and I don't like that
Or how you cannot handle being face to face
Or keep communicating but you like the space
I'm in the dark and I don't like that
[Chorus]
Can we just speak in real life?
Conversation I can follow
Conversation I can swallow
When I know
That we could speak in real time
Conversation in the same room
'Cause I don't wanna lose you
When I know
That we could speak in real life
(That we could speak in real life)
[Verse 2]

In the current situation, I'll never get it

[Outro]
Can we just, can we just
Can we just speak in real life?
