Can we stay inside for movie night? by Theonlywizardh3r3 Lyrics

Genre: rb | Year: 2020

I’m not one much for theaters
But I love film
Cinemas are sinister
Dark, grim and so still
I need movement
I’m a student of consuming
Fluent in Kubrick and Godard
So I’d rather not go far to the snack bar
For sour Skittles
But to a kitchen cabinet for chocolate pretzels
Meet you in the middle of the sectional
Cuddle on the couch with comfort in our mouth
Safely alone, staying home to watch a show

And truly you felt like a movie
From the way you walked in
Late on the first day, new girl, shy face
To how you said you feel like you knew me
To how when we hold hands
You hold fast like something scary
I cover your eyes
And never worry this invites lies
I won’t and don’t worry, not wary
It’s only your words that can scare me
When you say maybe you never loved me
Your lips let out "We never dated."
Your actions shouldn’t affect me
But your touch is fading
Stop acting, I didn’t fall for an actor
This drama has killed the laughter
It’s suppressing the pre-show chatter
The maybe the credits aren’t what come after
Feels like the arm rest has come between us
I’ve seen the next scene and it’s fucked up
It’s not even a break up
You just left for a snack and never came back
I sat in the dark for months after that
Why won’t they let the lights up?
Come clean the popcorn we spilled in the aisle
Really, it’s not over
It’s just the second act I know
My eyes, I hope they don’t show
I hope my body language isn’t languid enough to be
Passed off as emotionally dangerous
Admittedly it’s the intermission
And by my own admission, I should’ve went with you to the concession
I should’ve offered to get the popcorn
I’ll just be patient and wait for the
And wait for the
And wait for the…
End

And just as the resolution is coming to a conclusion
The climax is culminating to the end of the movie
You ascend the stairs and slide next to me
“Sorry there was a line, but I got us candy.”
It’s fine, I wasn’t worried

I’m not one much for theaters
But I love film
Cinemas are sinister
Dark, grim and so still
I never know when I’m alone anymore
I can’t tell
I’ve got 3-D glasses on
And I swore the score just swelled
Past the point that I can ignore or form a yell
The soundtrack screams you’re gone, I’m by myself
But I’m comfy in my seat, I won’t leave
And if I do decide to flee
We can always meet out in the lobby
Look at posters and hope for a sequel, or remake
Making out in the lounge is great
And seeing the newest release, or falling asleep at the big screen
But next time, maybe we should stick to DVD’s
