Lyric

[Intro]

If I say it out loud, would you freak out?

[Verse 1]

Got your name sitting on my tongue again

Like a song that I don’t wanna end

Type your name, then I hit delete

Yeah, my confidence is bittersweet

You say “hey” like it’s nothing new

But it’s messing with my point of view

I play cool but I overthink

Every little word between the lines you link

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m tired of the almost

Sick of getting this close

Every second I’m about to say it

[Chorus]

If I say it out loud, would you freak out?

Would you run or would you reach out?

I’m right here on the edge, no way down

With a heart going boom right now

I don’t need you to promise me forever

Just a “maybe we could be together”

If I say it out loud tonight…

Would you look at me different this time?

[Verse 2]

We’re that “almost something” kind of thing

Like a joke that you never finish

You get close then you step away

Like you’re scared of what you might say

I replay every little scene

Like it’s gonna show me what you mean

But the truth is I’m still stuck here

Dancing circles round my fear

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m done with the silence

Done being the quiet

Version of me you never knew

[Chorus]

If I say it out loud, would you freak out?

Would you run or would you reach out?

I’m right here on the edge, no way down

With a heart going boom right now

I don’t need you to promise me forever

Just a “maybe we could be together”

If I say it out loud tonight…

Would you look at me different this time?

[Bridge]

Funny how I’m scared to lose you

When I never really had you

All these words I never used

Yeah, they’re turning into bad news

I keep playing safe, staying quiet

But safe never got me invited

[Breakdown]

So I’ll say it out loud, let it break me

Even if you never could take me

I’d rather crash than never even try

Than be the girl who just passed you by

[Final Chorus]

Yeah, I said it out loud, didn’t freak out

And you didn’t even walk out

Now I’m standing here, no disguise

With the truth in my eyes

I don’t need you to promise me forever

But you said “yeah, maybe we could be together”

Guess I should’ve said it sooner, right?

Yeah… I’ve been ready this whole time
