Rehearse Your Name

Lyrics I laugh a little too loud when you’re around Trip on words, play the fool in this small town You think I’m easy, nothing on my mind But I rehearse your name like all the time Yeah, I act like I don’t see The way you shine differently But it’s safer if you never know I pretend I don’t feel anything But you’re living in my head 24/7 Every glance you throw, it changes everything Like a light I could never step in And I know I look like I’m just passing by Like I’m fine, like I don’t even try But the truth is I’m stuck in you Even when I pretend I don’t I joke around so you won’t see it break All the silence I carry home every day When I’m alone, the noise just fades to black And all I have is the thought of you back I’m a ghost in my own room Lonely with a quiet gloom But you don’t need to know that side I pretend I don’t feel anything But you’re living in my head 24/7 Every glance you throw, it changes everything Like a light I could never step in And I know I look like I’m just passing by Like I’m fine, like I don’t even try But the truth is I’m stuck in you Even when I pretend I don’t If I said it out loud, would it fall apart? Would you laugh at the mess in my heart? So I’ll stay the same, yeah I’ll play my part The funny guy who never starts So I’ll smile like it’s nothing new While my world just circles you Yeah, I’ll keep it hidden, keep it low Even if you’ll never know But you’re living in my head 24/7 Every glance you throw, it changes everything Like a light I could never step in And I know I look like I’m just passing by Like I’m fine, like I don’t even try But the truth is I’m stuck in you Even when I pretend I don’t
