Skip The Charades

You wait on letters Fishing for any sign of life Drinks after dinner Your friends will get you to unwind Let's skip the charades Can we just speak plain? I'm two left feet When I'm home, we tap-danced on broken glass Somehow you manage To keep your sense of humor in tact Let's skip the charades You're seeing right through me anyway Can we just speak plain? We're playing for the same team But I'm the one that's acting like Acting like Acting like I'm so strong You're the one that's acting like Acting like Acting like Nothing's wrong You dodged the bullet You do your best when you're busiest You're disconnected You can't find your name in the script It was you who were wildest It was you who floated above us all I held on with wires Will you come back down if I let you go? Let's skip the charades You're seeing right through me anyway Can we just speak plain? We're playing for the same team But I'm the one that's acting like I'm so strong You're the one that's acting like nothing's wrong I'm the one that's acting like I'm so strong You're the one that's acting like nothing's wrong Can we skip the charades? Just speak plain Can we skip the charades? Just speak plain Can we skip the charades? Just speak plain Can we skip the charades? Just speak plain --- Skip the Charades - Cold War Kids
