Don’t Come Over

Written by Marielle Kraft

V1

No it’s not typical of me to say no

To be this type of cynical, I try to let go

But for the first time I’m not picking up my phone

I see your name

Flip your face to hide the glow

I haven’t felt like me in a minute

Trying to convince you that I’m still in it

You offer to drive down 95 to keep this thing alive

 C1

But don’t come over

I think I’d rather be alone

Still hungover

From all this fighting through the phone

Keep holding on to your rope

Tying knots that I call hope

But if you come over

We’ll be over

So don’t come over

Don’t come over

 V2

Maybe if I keep talking you won’t show up

Wander halls of favorite memories so the other door stays shut

In the past I’ve shown up unannounced

To hold you when you’re freaking out

And I can tell you’re thinking that right now

 C2

But don’t come over

I think I’d rather be alone

Still hungover

From all this fighting through the phone

Keep holding on to your rope

Tying knots that I call hope

But if you come over

We’ll be over

So don’t come over

Don’t come over

Bridge

But shouldn’t I want you to come over

Shouldn’t I miss you when you’re gone

You were supposed to be the one

You were supposed to be the one

Maybe if you write out your thoughts alone

And I ask you for space

We wouldn’t have to bend until we break

We’d find another way

But tonight my fears came bursting from closet

And if you show up I’m afraid that I’ll be honest

So don’t come over

C3

Don’t come over

I think I’d rather be alone

Still hungover

From all this fighting through the phone

Keep holding on to your rope

But I’m losing grip of hope

And if you come over

We’ll be over

And if you come over

We’ll be over

So don’t come over

Don’t come over
