common ground Lyrics by Carter Rubin

i still know nothing

2024

[Verse 1]
You call me so what you going on for
Don't ask questions you know you're not ready for
I won't be around to push anymore
Flowers died right aside your door
I left them there in the middle of a downpour
There's no beat in the heart of us anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Open hand
I'll show you all my
Cards are on the table
So go on call my bluff

[Chorus]
We either say too much or we say nothing at all
We're always hung up on the hang up of a late night call
You know we got the chase part down in this run around
We're a couple of bookends but we're never the book
Maybe this enemies to lovers trope just won't work
I guess we got nothing in common and we know that now
And that's our common ground
That's our common ground

[Verse 2]
I'm doing you a favor turning my back
You're gonna thank me later when the time's past, yeah
I promise the end just defines the means
We could bury the hatchet or we could slowly die
We could drag this out or we could cut the tie
So what a web we weaved back when we still believed

[Chorus]
We either say too much or we say nothing at all
We're always hung up on the hang up of a late night call
You know we got the chase part down in this run around
We're a couple of bookends but we're never the book
Maybe this enemies to lovers trope just won't work
I guess we got nothing in common and we know that now
And that's our common ground
That's our common

[Bridge]
Open hand
I'll show you all my
Cards are on the table
But you still call my bluff
I died when you first said my name
Told my mom you were an angel
Guess I'm just in a enabler of us
Cause I was ready to jump
And I was ready to fall goddamn
I coulda sworn you'd be there through it all
We were spinning so fast we couldn't see we were circling
The drain we were going down, only ever going down
Yeah, the fog was so thick, but I always saw you through it
If you got ounce to love left, now's the time to prove it
You act so nonchalant, now I don't know how you do it
I don't know how you do it, no

[Chorus]
We either say too much or we say nothing at all
We're always hung up on the hang up of a late night call
You know we got the chase part down in this run around
We're a couple of bookends but we're never the book
Maybe this enemies to lovers trope just won't work
I guess we got nothing in common and we know that now
And that's our common ground
That's our common ground

[Outro]
You call me so what you going on for
There's no beat in the heart of us anymore
