Quiet Verse - One Earbud Out (Official Lyric Video)

Quiet Verse - One Earbud Out Lyrics - [Verse 1] You always leave one earbud out On the train, when you're alone Like part of you is listening For someone calling from another row Your screen is cracked along the corner Still you type with both your thumbs You never finish telling stories You just say “anyway” and switch the subject [Pre-Chorus] I learned your little exits The ones you think I never see Funny how you can hide a feeling And still leave clues in everything [Chorus] You leave one earbud out Like you're saving half a song for me Don't tell me what it's about I like not knowing what you mean And when the doors slide open You look back before you go You leave one earbud out But you never ask me to come home [Verse 2] You count the floors in elevators When there's nothing left to say Press three, then press it twice Like changing numbers changes where we are You send me songs with no explanation Just a link at 1:16 So I start measuring the spaces Between the words you don't send me [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we're both pretending This is smaller than it feels You call it “nothing serious” But nothing doesn't follow me home [Chorus] You leave one earbud out Like you're saving half a song for me Don't tell me what it's about I like not knowing what you mean And when the doors slide open You look back before you go You leave one earbud out But you never ask me to come home [Bridge] Maybe that's your language Maybe mine is staying late Maybe all these almost-moments Are just cowardice with better taste So next time, keep the silence Let the whole train pass us by I'll sit there without asking And see if you move closer this time [Final Chorus] You leave one earbud out And slide a little closer to me Don't tell me what it's about Just let the song fill up the seats No grand confession coming No perfect words to choose You leave one earbud out And somehow that's enough of you [Outro] Your stop comes before mine We both know it does You stand up slowly Like maybe you forgot music by Quiet Verse © all rights reserved.
