Dumb?

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You typed that like a dare Like you want me to flinch Like one sharp little word Could make me crack a bit I read the tremble in it The way you made it stretch That extra "k" in the middle Says more than what you text [Pre-Chorus] So I won't swing back hard I know what pain can do You don't sound cruel to me You sound a little bruised [Chorus] No, I don't think you are dumb I think you're tired and done I think you're asking for proof That somebody still sees you No, I don't think you are dumb (not dumb) I think you're close to the edge And you need kinder words instead [Verse 2] Maybe you missed your marks Maybe the room felt cold Maybe you said the first thing That wouldn't let you fold I've watched a brave face shake I've watched a strong one bend That doesn't make you lesser It just means you're human, friend [Pre-Chorus] So breathe for a second now Let the sharp stuff pass through You don't have to earn love To be worth the truth [Chorus] No, I don't think you are dumb I think you're tired and done I think you're asking for proof That somebody still sees you No, I don't think you are dumb (not dumb) I think you're close to the edge And you need kinder words instead [Bridge] If you meant it as a joke It still landed like rain If you meant it like a shield Then baby, say that plain You can drop the whole act now You don't have to perform Come here, let the silence break Let me be your calm [Final Chorus] No, I don't think you are dumb I think you're tired and done I think you're asking for proof That somebody still sees you No, I don't think you are dumb (not dumb) I think you're close to the edge And you need kinder words instead
