Ask Me

Ask me what it feels like Walking into rooms that don’t see me Cold air, quiet eyes Like I’m standing where love should be Ask me about silence How it echoes when no one calls I’ve memorized the sound of it I know those empty walls Pre-Chorus I’ve watched it from a distance I’ve seen how it moves I’m not afraid of wanting I’m just waiting on the truth Chorus Ask me about loneliness Ask me what it’s done to me Ask me about sleepless nights And how I learned to breathe Ask me about everything I’ll tell you honestly But don’t ask me about love… Tell me Verse 2 Ask me what it’s like Seeing it in someone else’s hands Soft light in their faces Like they finally understand Ask me about hoping Like it’s something I could hold I’ve carried it like fragile glass Careful not to let it go Pre-Chorus I’ve stood outside the doorway I’ve felt it in the air I’m not scared of falling If someone’s really there Chorus Ask me about loneliness Ask me what it’s done to me Ask me about quiet tears And all the in-betweens Ask me about everything I’ll tell you honestly But don’t ask me about love… Tell me Bridge I’m not hiding I’m not closed I’m not afraid of letting go If you know it If it’s real Show me how it’s supposed to feel Final Chorus Ask me about loneliness I’ll tell you what I know Ask me about empty rooms And watching others glow Ask me about everything I’m ready now, you’ll see But don’t ask me about love… Tell me (Tell me) (Tell me)
