Josiah Williams
Her Words
[Young Marquis - Chorus:]
I might have been here before
And I’m just trying to turn back
Because I know what happens next
We’re both broken and attached

See, I don’t wanna fuss no more
I want us to get right back
Together we’ll win
Because we put too much time in

[Josiah Williams – Verse One:]
You gave me all that you had
Wrapped it up like a present and put it inside a bag
Told me, if ever needed, you’d be there
And I believed it
I never thought you would leave
And my heart is currently bleeding
Told you that I was damaged
Well beyond the worst
Instead of talking it out I would try to be silent first
And that’s basically violence to a mind that’s really trying
I want you to stay, but all I do is shy and (sigh)

I don’t have to ask what’s happened
I’m the one that’s acting
Mad about my own actions
Dammit, I’ve become flattened
Dreamed about being a ‘hot topic’ in a nice spot in Manhattan
Nowadays I feel all alone, I went Southwest like Staten

I know you don’t want to talk now
And I get that
But honestly, I’m trying, I want to get back

I know, all you can think about is trust
While all I think about is us
Hear me out

[Young Marquis - Chorus:]

[Josiah Williams – Verse Two:]
What happened to all those nights when you would tell me that you love me?
Call me in the morning to show that you’re thinking of me
Headed out for the night, you would tell me that I was lovely
And now you don’t say a thing, and I’m starting to think I’m ugly

I’m sure you never intended to treat me like a student
Indefinitely suspended

But that’s just how it is now, ain’t it?
‘Cause ever since the day I let you down, your image of us has faded

I made it a problem
Can’t believe I ain’t notice
Can’t believe that I’m stuck inside of my mind now without focus
Can’t believe you’re letting go
I still consider you closest
You found a reason to live; I found a way to be hopeless

I know I’m trying as hard as I can
Even though I always fall when I’m striving to stand
These red tears I cry, they’re apart of my life
I just really hope that I can get it right
Hear me out

[Young Marquis - Chorus:]

[Josiah Williams – Verse Three]
You say it’s all in the past, but I doubt it
And we’re the only ones who’ll ever know about it
The hardest part is talking and never touching
And pretending that I’m only feeling nothing
I’m sick of all of this pain, though we caused it
Sick of watching memories fall in a faucet
I know you’re mad, and I’m sorry that I’ve softened
Help me out so it doesn’t happen as often

[Young Marquis - Chorus:]
