Silver Linings Lyrics

You're telling me I've got a voice
You're telling me I've got a choice
But all I see is beat it or eat it
I'm telling you, it's such a waste
I'm telling you I've got no taste for ultimatums
But I'm afraid that's all you're giving me
And silver linings aren't enough
I want nothing from you but love
Love or nothing
Please tell me that's worth at least
Something to think about
So here's the deal - we're gonna talk
Open it up or I will walk
I'm not afraid of open space
I'm not afraid to be replaced
Is this denial, or a chance?
Will you lead me another dance
And get my hopes up just to crash
Crash down again?
'Cause silver linings aren't enough
I want every piece you have
Every heartbeat
I know it's not smart but it's
Something to think about
June, I already feel like I lost you
June, give me your hand - maybe we'll break through
I understand you're afraid
Can we clean up the mess we've made?
You're telling me we'll work it out
But I've got reasonable doubt
'Cause all I hear
Is your sadness and your fear
And I would rather stay and work
But you've got so much more to hurt
You've got my heart, but there's my gut
And it's telling me, telling me
That silver linings aren't for me
And though I know that nothing's free
Freedom's everything
And I want to see
A sky that just beams
Not just gold in the seams
Isn't that something
Something to think about?

You're telling me I've got a voice
You're telling me I've got a choice
But all I see is beat it or eat it
I'm telling you, it's such a waste
I'm telling you I've got no taste for ultimatums
But I'm afraid that's all you're giving me
And silver linings aren't enough
I want nothing from you but love
Love or nothing
Please tell me that's worth at least
Something to think about
So here's the deal - we're gonna talk
Open it up or I will walk
I'm not afraid of open space
I'm not afraid to be replaced
Is this denial, or a chance?
Will you lead me another dance
And get my hopes up just to crash
Crash down again?
'Cause silver linings aren't enough
I want every piece you have
Every heartbeat
I know it's not smart but it's
Something to think about
June, I already feel like I lost you
June, give me your hand - maybe we'll break through
I understand you're afraid
Can we clean up the mess we've made?
You're telling me we'll work it out
But I've got reasonable doubt
'Cause all I hear
Is your sadness and your fear
And I would rather stay and work
But you've got so much more to hurt
You've got my heart, but there's my gut
And it's telling me, telling me
That silver linings aren't for me
And though I know that nothing's free
Freedom's everything
And I want to see
A sky that just beams
Not just gold in the seams
Isn't that something
Something to think about?
