Ruminating Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm giving up on getting sleep tonight
It's 4 a.m. and I'm in fight or flight
Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating (Ruminating, ruminating)
And I can't shake the image of her naked
On top of you and I'm dissociated
Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating (Ruminating, ruminating)
And I'm not hateful but you make me hate her
She gets to sleep next to my medicator
You're mine, mine, mine, mine, you're mine, mine, mine, mine
You're mine, mine, mine, mine, you're mine, mine, mine

[Chorus]
And now I'm ruminating, ruminating, now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating all the things you said
Why can't you wait for me to come home?
This conversation's too big for a phone call
Ruminating, ruminating, I'vе been up all night
Did you kiss her on the lips and look into her еyes?
Did you have fun? Now that it's done
Baby, won't you tell me that I'm still your number one?
'Cause you're my number one

[Verse 2]
I told you all of this has been too brutal
You told me that you felt the same, it's mutual
And then you came out with this line, so crucial
Yeah, "If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
"If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
"If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
But what a line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line
What a fucking line

[Chorus]
Ruminating, ruminating, now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating all the things you said
Why can't you wait for me to come home? (Come home)
This conversation's too big for a phone call
Ruminating, ruminating, I've been up all night (All night)
Did you kiss her on the lips and look into her eyes? (Her eyes)
Did you have fun? Now that it's done (It's done)
Baby, won't you tell me that I'm still your number one? (Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)
'Cause you're my number one (Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)

[Bridge]
(Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)
(Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)
(Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)
(Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)
(Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)
(Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating)

[Chorus]
Ruminating, ruminating, now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating all the things you said
Why can't you wait for me to come home?
This conversation's too big for a phone call
Ruminating, ruminating, I've been up all night
Did you kiss her on the lips and look into her eyes?
Did you have fun? Now that it's done
Baby, won't you tell me that I'm still your number one?
