Cautious Lyrics by Max Leone

Malleable

2020

[Verse 1]
I thought I had it in my pocket
I close the door after I lock it
'Cause lately I've been feeling cautious
And maybe that's why it's ironic
That nothing ever hurts me anymore
'Cause I was sick of being miserable
And now I never feel emotional
I'm too afraid to lose any control

[Chorus]
Yeah, and it's nice to be all alone sometimes just to let it go
But, lately the days have been feeling so long
And maybe I don't have to be on my own
But, I've been so paralyzed
And lie to myself at night
The head and the heart never been so opposed
Meanwhile, I keep my eyes glued to the road

[Verse 2]
Wait a second, where'd you go?
I know it's been a month or so
I'll go in, wait in the car
You know me, I'm never far
Silence on the radio
I'm not used to friends that come and go
I used to keep them close
I got too much safety
I've been up for three weeks
Someone come and save me

[Chorus]
And it's nice to be all alone sometimes just to let it go
But, lately the days have been feeling so long
And maybe I don't have to be on my own
But, I've been so paralyzed
And lie to myself at night
The head and the heart never been so opposed
Meanwhile, I keep my eyes glued to the road

[Bridge]
I'm so sick of being cautious (Cautious)
I'm so sick of being cautious all the time
Turning into something caustic (Caustic)
And I don't really know what caused it, I'll be fine
I'm so sick of being cautious
I'm so sick of being cautious all the time
Turning into something caustic
I don't really know what caused it, I'll be fine

[Outro]
I think I'll be fine
Do I wanna be fine?
It seems that I'm just fine
And it's fine
