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 key

Trust me it's nothing you wanna see

But you 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

And that's the only way

Like, a button so I can get out 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, a reset, a reset

I need a reset, reset, a reset

Okay, say I spill

What do you 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

The 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 from my 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 insurance

When things go awry

Go back to when it was alright

I press it

You don't remember a thing

So at least I knew you were listening

I need a reset, reset, a reset, a reset

I need a reset, reset, a reset

And I know you're insecure about 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 harder one

But I don't think we should build

this in sadness and redemption

So if you're gonna do this, there's only one exception

A reset

This won't come up again

We tell our pretty tales and that's it

The end

Press the button when we're done and we're back

We've begun a clean slate

A clean slate

A reset, reset, a reset, a reset

I need a reset, reset, a reset

No lingering distress, distress, distress, distress

In a reset, reset, a reset
