You're Not So Good At Talking Anymore Lyrics

So calm down, and come out
I was heading down a road
Your head turned left and I follow
You were my compass, then
Anywhere you go, I'm in

You were ready, shaking
Starved for this feeling you lost, you lost

I don't know where we went wrong
Why would you act like you don't know
Swaying to the rhythm of our own song
So don't let me go

Feels like a brick's stuck in my throat
Holding everything my heart wants
Finding love in an old song
So don't let me go

I'm ready, waiting on my ending

I'm just a boy in the snow
I'm feeling sweats right through my clothes
We have an honest grin
That we would hide out and in

You were ready, shaking
Starved for this feeling you lost, you lost

I don't know where we went wrong
Why would you act like you don't know
Swaying to the rhythm of our own song
So don't let me go

Feels like a brick's stuck in my throat
Holding everything my heart wants
Finding love in an old song
So don't let me go

So calm down, come out

I'm ready, waiting on my ending

I don't know where we went wrong
Why would you act like we don't know
Swaying to the rhythm of our own song
So don't let me go

So calm down, and come out
I was heading down a road
Your head turned left and I follow
You were my compass, then
Anywhere you go, I'm in

You were ready, shaking
Starved for this feeling you lost, you lost

I don't know where we went wrong
Why would you act like you don't know
Swaying to the rhythm of our own song
So don't let me go

Feels like a brick's stuck in my throat
Holding everything my heart wants
Finding love in an old song
So don't let me go

I'm ready, waiting on my ending

I'm just a boy in the snow
I'm feeling sweats right through my clothes
We have an honest grin
That we would hide out and in

You were ready, shaking
Starved for this feeling you lost, you lost

I don't know where we went wrong
Why would you act like you don't know
Swaying to the rhythm of our own song
So don't let me go

Feels like a brick's stuck in my throat
Holding everything my heart wants
Finding love in an old song
So don't let me go

So calm down, come out

I'm ready, waiting on my ending

I don't know where we went wrong
Why would you act like we don't know
Swaying to the rhythm of our own song
So don't let me go

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think you're right tracer17. It would make more sense if it was "compass" instead.

The chorus of this song reminds me of Taking back sunday's "One eighty by summer" the part on minute 2:37 when Adam Sings: "She says, "Live up to your first impression" Well my best side was your worst invention Why can't you live without the attention?"

I like the drums of this song very much
