Here’s The Thing Lyrics

[Chorus: Grian Chatten]
So here's the thing, I know you're watching
I feel your pain, it's mine as well
I know you're right, I know you're right, girl
And if you change your mind, I will be waiting
I know your thoughts they're mine as well
I know you're right, I know you're right, girl

[Verse 1: Grian Chatten]
Shocked and pretty is that face you're making
Is there a sentiment you'd like to tell?
But, if you tell them what the real story is
I'm afraid it wouldn't play that well
Oh, no

[Chorus: Grian Chatten]
So here's the thing, I need commotion
I know your thoughts, they're mine as well
I know you're right, I know you're right, girl
And if you change your mind, I will be waiting
To keep your pain with mine as well
I know you're right, I know you're right, girl

[Verse 2: Grian Chatten]
Aren't people made to chime?
It never makes me happy anymore
Always singing in my mind
And talking just provokes it, ah, ah

[Chorus: Grian Chatten]
So here's the thing, I know you're watching
I feel your pain, It's mine as well
I know you're right, I know you're right, girl
To be anesthetized, and crave emotion
So beautiful to hurt so well
I know you're right, I know you're right, girl

[Outro: Grian Chatten]
So here's the thing, I know you're watching
