Lyrics:
Two paper cups with cardboard sleeves
Sitting on the table getting cold
Neither one of us really wanted a drink
But we needed something to hold
I think you know what’s coming by now
Cause I’m not good at hiding it
Know what I gotta say, just don’t know how
And I’m not good at finding it

Do I say what I need to say
Or do I tell you what I think you wanna hear
There’s no good way to make a heart break
And when it’s over all this won’t just disappear
I could tell you I’m sorry and that one day it won’t hurt
Say it’s me not you and I’m not what you deserve
But they’re just words, they’re just words
They’re just words, they’re just words

We talk about that trip we took upstate
When you told me all of your secrets
I carry them around and I feel the weight
Of seeing you at your weakest
I know you’re gonna need to ask me why
Will it even make a difference
When we’ll both be lying wide awake tonight
Why’s the truth so inconvenient

Do I say what I need to say
Or do I tell you what I think you wanna hear
There’s no good way to make a heart break
And when it’s over all this won’t just disappear
Cause they’re just words, they’re just words
They’re just words, they’re just words

You can keep ‘em if you need ‘em
Or throw ‘em right back at me
You can twist the way I mean ‘em
And blame me when I leave

And I could tell you I’m sorry and that one day it won’t hurt
Say it’s me not you and I’m not what you deserve
But they’re just words, they’re just words
They’re just words, they’re just words
