You Shouldn't Have Said That

[Verse 1] You shouldn't have said that At least not without warning I've been such a wreck Always scared that I'm boring You swallow my words Cause they're not that important You shouldn't have said that And think I'd ignore it You shouldn't have called me You knew that I'd answer My vision is spinning My heart is a hammer Before we ignite this I brace for the fallout Too close to the ceiling I wait for the comedown [Chorus] And you shouldn't have called me pretty and think I'd forget it My memory's shitty but god it's selective [Verse 2] You shouldn't have said that And think that I'd read it Then after a minute Forget that I'd seen it The spell's gonna break If I start to believe it You shouldn't have sent that If you didn't mean it St-st-stutter around you Called a speech pathologist She said to fuck off And see my psychologist Looked for distractions I found none at college Just rich kids from Jersey And part-time astrologists Still thought about you but now I know communists [Chorus] And you shouldn't have called me pretty and think I'd forget it My memory's shitty but god it's selective [Bridge] And there's blood in the water I'll wait 'til the faucet runs clear And you shouldn't have said that and think I'd pretend not to hear Oh baby there's blood in the water I'll wait 'til the faucet runs clear And you shouldn't have said that and think I'd pretend not to hear [Outro] It looms but the promise This cloud that I'm under I'm quick as the lightning And sure as the thunder The silence between Beating slow like a death march But just for a second It's light 'til it gets dark
