Lyrics

Caffeine

Verse 1:

I don't want an accident

I don't want the start of something bad

But you're always on my mind

I won't neglect the thoughts that I had

Chorus:

I don't drink coffee but

I need an excuse just to see you

I can't make plans without some help

I'm nervous when I see you

I want to make you happy

I need your caffeine

I need to make you happy

I want your caffeine

Verse 2:

Biting my sweatshirt strings

Drawing attention to myself

Hide my heart when I speak

I'll take my words from someone else

Chorus:

I don't drink coffee but

I need an excuse just to see you

I can't make plans without some help

I'm nervous when I see you

I want to make you happy

I need your caffeine

I need to make you happy

I want your caffeine

Bridge:

This song can tear into your heart

If you let it

Your eyes could tear into my soul

If I let them

My ego was right

I should have never let you in

I don't need your light

I wouldn't ask even if I did

Outro:

I don't drink coffee but

I need an excuse just to see you

I can't make plans without some help

I'm nervous when I see you

I don't drink coffee but

I need an excuse just to see you

I can't make plans without some help

I'm nervous when I see you

I want to make you happy

I need your caffeine

I need to make you happy

I want your caffeine
