Candid lyrics

[Verse 1]
Uh
Could I ask for more? Could you lead me on?
Could you take me back?
If I left you all alone and solo
I've got no control and I don't know what I'm doing here
Could I set it straight? 'Cause I'm so bizarre
And I'd never stop, no
And I'd never be so honest if I wasn't three or four cups into the night
Should we make it right?
Should we stay alone 'till the morning light?
Could I set the bar and make it high?
You're asking so much more than I expected

[Pre-Chorus]
Building up the courage and no words to say
Hoping that you'll come and meet me halfway
You would want it too if I had my way

[Chorus]
But why'd you have to go and say it out loud (Say it out loud)
Had to go and spill 'em all out (All out)
I'm sorry that I went and caught a feeling
'Cause now we'rе stuck staring at the ceiling
Why'd I go and say it out loud?
[Verse 2]
I'm trying to be candid, and I'm optimistic
But I think I missеd it (I think I missed it)
I missed the one and only chance I had to be more than another f*cking sidekick
But don't get offended, we were just pretending
We can stay platonic
This is never ending if you manage expectation is no way to be disappointed
But I know you like I'm your conscience
And I know like five of your secrets
And I've been a part of your regrets
And I've never broke up your heart, and
And I'm pretty sure that's a good thing
So I'll simmer down now

[Pre-Chorus]
Building up the courage and no words to say
Hoping that you'll come and meet me halfway
You would want it too if I had my way

[Chorus]
But why'd you have to go and say it out loud? (Say it out loud)
Had to go and spill 'em all out (All out)
I'm sorry that I went and caught a feeling
'Cause now we're stuck staring at the ceiling
Why'd I go and say it out loud?
[Pre-Chorus]
Building up the courage and no words to say
Hoping that you'll come and meet me halfway
You would want it too if I had my way

[Chorus]
But why'd I have to go and say it out loud?
But you don't really see me like that
You don't really need me like that, but nah
Had to go and spill 'em all out
I'm sorry that I went and caught a feeling
'Cause now we're stuck staring at the ceiling
Why'd I go and say it out loud? (Say it out loud)
(Say it out loud)

[Outro]
Could I ask for more? Could you lead me on?
