Google Play: It Won’t Kill You
Lyrics
Verse 1
That’s no way to start a conversation
Subvert my expectations by putting me down
You think you’ve figured me out
Before I’ve even opened my mouth oh
You want a confrontation and use your words to
Give me the runaround
Chorus
I know cynicism has appeal
But tell me how you really, really feel
Sarcasm has no place here
Would it kill you to be sincere?
Verse 2
Now you say that rules are meant for breaking…. But
There’s something to be said for social graces
Your tongue is sharp and you stab it right through my heart oh
It’s just a game… you keep saying, but look around, ‘cause no one wants to play with you
So how come no one wants to play with you
Bridge
I’ve been in your shoes I’ve said things that I regret
When I’m nervous and I’m trying to impress
So let’s start over and pretend that we’ve just met
When we’re honest there’s no need to second guess intentions
Chorus
I know cynicism has appeal
But tell me how you really, really feel
Sarcasm has no place here
Would it kill you to be sincere?
Chorus 2
I know cynicism can be a shield
I’ll tell you how I really, really feel
Sarcasm is so last year
It would not kill you to be sincere
