Madds Buckley - Reset Lyrics

Lyrics Reset - Madds Buckley



You ever keep something locked away
And you know that it's never gonna see the light of day?
'Cause it's embarrassing
Stupid even
Keep it under lock
And trust me it's nothing you wanna see
But just say you do
And this conversation's something we've been through a lot
Look, I get it
Curiosity has charm
And you feel like I'm not giving everything you are
But possibilities play in my head
Disaster, distress and oncoming dread
Are not the things I need right now
There's only one way, one how
I need a reset, that's the only way
Like a button
So I can get out the things I need to say
And when I press it
You won't remember a thing
But at least you can feel like you were listening
I need a reset, reset, reset, reset
I need a reset, reset, reset
Okay, say I spill
What do you do then?
Now that it's out in the open, no walls to defend it
I'm glad you trust me, but I'm only comfortable so deep
Shallows are as far as I'm willing to be
You can tell me you're sturdy
Tell me you're fine
But it's not like I can read your mind
I like the distance
There's more assurance
That no one else is gonna fall for a momentary courage
'Cause the body's not a pretty sight
When its guts are spilled before your eyes
And who will clean the mess?
Don't tell me that you will
Your job's not to be an emotional refill
I need a reset
Like some assurance
When things aren't right, go back to when it was all right
I press it, you don't remember a thing
So at least I knew you were listening
I need a reset, reset, reset, reset
I need a reset, reset, reset
And I know you're insecure 'bout the weight, but so am I
But let's be honest, emotions are cheap to come by
We've all got our faults, we've all got our scars
Maybe I'd like mine to stay in the dark
It's nothing personal, just a choice
Maybe I'm a running from the hard one
But I don't think we should build this on sadness and redemption
So if you're gonna do this, there's only one exception
A reset, this won't come up again
We'd tell our pretty tales and that's it, the end
Press the button when we're done, and we're back where we begun
A clean slate, a clean slate
A Reset, reset, reset, reset
I need a reset, reset, reset
No lingering and distress, distress, distress, distress
And a reset, reset, reset
