Rather Nice - Diversions Lyrics

Scared to speak what's on my mind
What if I'm all out of line
Don't wanna misconstrue
The stuff I wanna tell you
Maybe this is what I need
Though I know you'll make me plead
Do you know what this is all for
I'm unsure

And all these little things in my head
Don't align with all the things I wanna say
These little diversions make it hard
My jaw is clenched I say it anyway
Can't let my emotions get in the way of
Every single thing I wanna do
These little diversions make it hard
But gone are all the days
I used to run from you and
When I say my whining's done
I'll show you off to everyone

Take a chance in this life
Even if it's full of strife
Don't wanna watch my story
Break down in front of my eyes
But it's too soon
To make assumptions based
On what's thrown in our face
Now I gotta watch my story
Break down in front of my eyes again

Even when the going's rough
You just gotta man up act tough
I don't think you understand
All the situations at hand
But no matter what you do
You just gotta fight it through
I don't think you understand
The situations at hand

And all these little things in my head
Don't align with all the things I wanna say
These little diversions make it hard
My jaw is clenched I say it anyway
Can't let my emotions get in the way of
Every single thing I wanna do
These little diversions make it hard
But gone are all the days
I used to run from
All these little things in my head
Don't align with all the things I wanna say
These little diversions make it hard
My jaw is clenched I say it anyway
Can't let my emotions get in the way of
Every single thing I wanna do
These little diversions make it hard
But gone are all the days
I used to run from you
