Glitch‑Grit Love

Lyrics

Verse 1 - Male] I'm just sitting here staring at my phone screen in the dark You sent a picture of some cooking, trying to strike a spark But then I watch the energy flip, the storm is rolling in Before I even say a word, the arguments begin You’re talking in these circles, I'm reading down the line Trying to find the honest truth we used to leave behind [Verse 2 - Female] I didn't mean to make it heavy, didn't mean to start a fight I just sent a little video trying to make your night But you're always on guard, watching every single move Like I’m setting up a trap just to see what I can prove You say you want the honesty, but when I bare my soul You lock it down, you shut it out, and take away control [Chorus - Male and Female] And it’s a modern kind of misery, a high-tech kind of pain Two people pulling sideways in a freezing midnight rain From the outside looking over, it’s a hell of a bittersweet ride Just two stubborn hearts colliding on a cracked-glass screen tonight We’re throwing heavy words around, just burning up the fuse In a game where nobody’s winning, and we both got too much to lose [Verse 3 - Female] Look, I'm sending over paragraphs, trying to cut through the noise Admitting that you see the patterns, the way you look at every choice I respect the way you watch the energy and the flow How you catch the shifting timing in the things I do and show I’m sorry for the silence, for leaving you unheard I should've listened better when your vision got blurred [Verse 4 - Male] Yeah, I've been trained to watch the actions and never trust the words I've got really good at reading people, even when it hurts Most the time I keep it quiet, let the static just fade out Because folks would rather call you crazy than admit what they're about But look at how you say sorry then go right back to the start Every time I think we're breaking through, you just pull us back apart [Bridge - Male and Female] [Male] You think I like to question you? It hurts to think of losing us [Female] I'm sorry that I gave you reasons not to give your trust [Male] I gave you every opportunity to help and make it right [Female] But I stayed so guarded, keeping up a useless fight [Male] Now it's a "what if" haunting me, wondering who you really were [Female] I never meant to let the promises turn to a blur [Male] It’s gonna hurt a little bit until my peace finally comes [Female] But the beating of these heavy hearts is sounding like the drums [Guitar Solo] [Chorus - Male and Female] And it’s a modern kind of misery, a high-tech kind of pain Two people pulling sideways in a freezing midnight rain From the outside looking over, it’s a hell of a bittersweet ride Just two stubborn hearts colliding on a cracked-glass screen tonight We’re throwing heavy words around, just burning up the fuse In a game where nobody’s winning, and we both got too much to lose [Outro] [Male] Yeah, you look back at the history we made [Female] While the real thing on the other side just starts to fade [Male] Just a mind that keeps on tracking [Female] Everything the words are lacking [Male] Yeah, the shadow on the screen [Female] And the spaces in between.
