Anna Snow - Background Noise Lyrics

Driving in the dark
Lights in our city
All my favorite songs are yours
Listening to you
You got me wishing I was pretty
And better with words
Next to you
You're saying that you're just not fine
I want you to be ok
You say you're better off
If you go into hiding
And you lock yourself away
Everybody else is just background noise
I'm just being sweet to all the other boys
I know it might take a little bit of time, yeah
But can I be the first one when you're fine, yeah
I'm not here to make you change your mind
But can you tell me if it's ever time
To turn down
The background noise
You opened your pages
You showed me the words
You let me have a look
You say you wish you could
But you couldn't read people
If they were a book
It's like we're the same person
And that's why it hurts
And why this is hard
Because you're no good at this
And I'm just worse
Everybody else is just background noise
I'm just being sweet to all the other boys
I know it might take a little bit of time, yeah
But can I be the first one when you're fine, yeah
I don't know much but I know if I know you
It won't be easy to know when to
Turn down
The background noise
You say if love is just a burden you don't want it anymore
I hear you but I don't know cause I've not been there before
You say if love is just a burden then you've had enough
I hear you but I don't know
Don't know love
