(at end of Pre-Chorus
[Verse 1]
And halfway ho
me, you caught
me at the sta
tion
Struck me up w
ith quiet conv
ersation
It'd been mont
hs since you h
ad set me free
Filled me in o
n your newfoun
d meditation
The quiet life
helped your d
edication
The dreams tha
t you loved mo
re than you lo
ved me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I do not w
ant to be cold
to you
You left me no
choice again
[Chorus]
But, girl, you
better act yo
ur age
Or you're gonn
a find yoursel
f alone some d
ay
Standing still
in the same o
ld place
Looking the sa
me way as yest
erday
Let me let you
in on a secre
t
You got lies,
I wish you wou
ld keep them
Beside your ca
ge with a brok
en lock
I'm sick of th
is small talk
I'm sick of th
is small talk
[Verse 2]
You cannot lie
, not what I e
xpected
to see you sha
ke at every si
mple question
I know you mor
e than you cou
ld ever hope I
would
So take me up
the stairs, sa
w you from a d
istance
With a cigaret
te, swore that
you would qui
t
And what's thi
s? A cloud tha
t hangs over o
ur heads
[Pre-Chorus]
And I do not w
ant to be cold
to you
You left me no
choice again
[Chorus]
But, girl, you
better act yo
ur age
Or you're gonn
a find yoursel
f alone some d
ay
Standing still
in the same o
ld place
Looking the sa
me way as yest
erday
Let me let you
in on a secre
t
You got lies,
I wish you wou
ld keep them
Beside your ca
ge with a brok
en lock
I'm sick of th
is small talk
I'm sick of th
is small talk
I'm sick of th
is small talk
Sick of this s
mall talk
