If You Insist

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Are you looking to be alone Or can I sit with you a while? I don't want to be a stranger anymore And you won't even have to smile We can talk about the rain How it can't seem to stop Something stupid like the football game Or I can tell you where to shop [Chorus 1] We're running out of options It's time to close the tab If you insist on being lonely Let me put you in a cab [Verse 2] Are you looking for something easy? Do you need to feel alive? Do you crave a love that tears through your life Like a Category 5? My mama spent every day alone In a house with noise and names She got so tired of putting out fires She just laid down in the flames [Chorus 2] We're running out of options I've told you all my jokes If you insist on being lonely Can you leave a couple smokes? [Verse 3] I could lie to you all night Say I saw you in a dream We don't have to get to know each other better Let it be just how it seems I won't ask you for your number Don't even need to know your name I'm too tired to get excited And I'm too old to be ashamed [Chorus 3] We're running out of options I'll give you time to think If you insist on being lonely Let me leave you to your drink [Chorus 4] We're running out of options I'll wait outside the door If you insist on being lonely I might wait a minute more
