[Verse 1: Jay Som]
I'm better now
I'm writing the words you never said
Ignore me now
The same old stories, same regrets
And in that moment
I swear it could last forever
But I'm better now
You'll never hear these words again
[Pre-Chorus: Jay Som and Soft Glas]
Lani, you have my patience
You can lay it all to rest
I'm in your kitchen
Washing your dishes
Thinking of the things I'll say to you
[Chorus: Jay Som and Soft Glas, Jay Som]
Back up, what you want
And what you're telling me
Doesn't matter what you mean
You can take the last word
Back up, what you want
And what you're telling me
Can't give you what you need
You can have the last word
(You can have the last word)
[Verse 2: Jay Som]
Take turns in time
Throw you the rope, I'm fine
Can't win, pretend
I'm fine, I'm fine
[Pre-Chorus: Jay Som]
Lani, you have my patience
You can lay it all to rest
I'm in your kitchen
Washing your dishes
Thinking of the things I'll say to you
[Chorus: Jay Som and Soft Glas, Jay Som]
Back up, what you want
And what you're telling me
Doesn't matter what you mean
You can take the last word
Back up, what you want
And what you're telling me
Can't give you what you need
You can have the last word
Back up, what you want
And what you're telling me
Doesn't matter what you mean
You can take the last word
Back up, what you want
And what you're telling me
Can't give you what you need
You can have the last word
You can have the last word
[Outro: Jay Som]
(I swear it could last forever)
(I swear it could last forever)
(I swear it could last forever)
