[Verse 1]
Red eye
Watch another movie, let the time fly
Maybe by the time I hit the ground, I
Would have worked it out
How to tell you that
[Verse 2]
I'm done
Every mile I count another reason
But when I see your face, I fall apart
I can't think of one
Not even one
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't help the way I feel
I can't keep pretending
How do you tell somebody that you don't love them no more?
Tell somebody that you don't love them?
[Chorus]
I've rehearsеd the lines like a million timеs
Perfectly aligned but the letters ain't coming out right
I, I
Really wish that silence could say everything
We could skip the part out where you blame me, I'd give anything

Wish that you could read my mind
[Post-Chorus]
Wish that you could read my mind

How do you tell somebody that you don't love them no more?
Tell somebody that you don't love them?
[Chorus]
I've rehearsed the lines like a million times
Perfectly aligned but the letters ain't coming out right
I, I
Really wish that silence could say everything
We could skip the part out where you blame me, I'd give anything
I, I
Wish that you could read my mind
[Post-Chorus]
Wish that you could read my mind
Read my mind
Wish that you could read my mind
Woah, woah
Wish that you could read my mind
[Outro]
I can't help the way I feel
I can't keep pretending
How do you tell somebody that you don't love them no more?
Tell somebody that you don't love them?
