How Can You Tell Lyrics by YVR

How Have You Been?

2020

[Verse 1]
Lying awake, just kinda anxious
For no reason at all
I build up these crazy expectations
But you don't let me fall
I laugh a little different when I'm comfortable
Truth is that I'm scared to be too vulnerable
But I don't have to say a word
'Cause you know what's wrong before I do
[Chorus]
How can you, how can you tell?
When I don't act like myself
How can you, how can you tell?
You know me, know me so well
How can you tell?
How, how
How can you tell
How, how
[Verse 2]
You know just how I hate the silence
I talk to fill up the space
When pressure is high always remind me that everything is okay
And I'm a work in progress, and you're the masterpiece
But you still love all my mediocrities
And I don't have to say a word
'Cause you know what's wrong before I do
[Chorus]
How can you, how can you tell?
When I don't act like myself
How can you, how can you tell?
You know me, know me so well
How can you tell?
How, how
How can you tell?
How, how
[Bridge]
I'm under pressure, I overthink
I touch my face and, I bite my cheek
This city makes me feel so alone
It might be hot, but it's turning me cold
Would you keep me warm when my mind's a storm?
Wrapped in your arms is where it feels like home
The world can be shallow, but your love is so deep
Oh baby, you bring out the best in me
[Chorus]
How can you, how can you tell?
When I don't act like myself
How can you, how can you tell?
You know me, know me so well (You know me)
How can you tell
How, how
How (How can you?)
How can you tell
How, how
How can you tell?
You know me better than I know myself
