Skip the Charades Songtext
von Cold War Kids

Ooh, uh
Ooh, woah
Ooh, woah
Ooh

You wait on letters
Patient for any sign of life
Drinks after dinner
Your friends will get you to unwind

Let′s skip the charades
Can we just speak plain?

I'm two left feet when
I′m home we tapdanced on broken glass
Somehow you managed
To keep your sense of humor intact

Let's skip the charades
You're seeing right through me anyway
Can we just speak plain?
We′re playing for the same team


But I′m the one that's acting like
Acting like
Acting like
I′m so strong

You're the one that′s acting like
Acting like
Acting like
Nothing's wrong

You dodged a bullet
You do your best when you′re busiest
But you're disconnected
You can't find your name in the script

It was you who were wildest
It was you who floated above us all
I held on with wires
Will you come back down if I let you go?

Let′s skip the charades
You′re seeing right through me anyway
Can we just speak plain?
We're playing for the same team


But I′m the one that's acting like I′m so strong
You're the one that′s acting like nothing's wrong
I'm the one that′s acting like I′m so strong
You're the one that′s acting like nothing's wrong

Can we skip the charades?
Just speak plain
Can we skip the charades?
Just speak plain
Can we skip the charades?
Just speak plain
Skip the charades
