​small talk by martysmusic Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come real close
I've got something to say
And if I whisper
I won't scare you away
In this world
That we create
I need depth
And I need space

[Pre-Chorus 1]
We have lived in shallow water
For too long to solve this problem
Every time I try to tell you
You swim up to find some shelter

[Chorus 1]
But I don't want small talk
I don't wanna live inside this bubble
This is not enough
You give me far too much trouble
[Verse 2]
So listen out
I'm not finished yet
And you can show me
A little respect
Every time
I try to say
What's going down
You're up, up, up, up and away

[Pre-Chorus 2]
We have lived inside this plastic
Far too long to say it's fantastic
And the face that you've been wearing
Shattered now, and you can't mask it

[Chorus 2]
And I don't want small talk
I don't wanna dance around these eggshells
This is just too much
We're living in a heaven that is hell

[Bridge]
Focus on the words I say
I can't stay here one more day
If I did, I'd probably die
And you wouldn't even ask me why
Oh it's because

[Chorus 3]
I don't want small talk
I don't wanna run through the motions
This is so damn rough
Pulled apart like the currents in the ocean

[Outro]
Talk to me
Just talk to me
You haven't said a single thing
Just talk to me
That's all

[Phone rings abruptly]
Hello
