Ruminating lyrics

I'm giving up on getting sleep tonight
It's 4 am, and I'm in fight-or-flight
Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating.

And I can't shake the image of her naked
On top of you, and I'm disassociated
Ruminating, ruminating, ruminating, ruminating.

And I'm not hateful, but you make me hate her
She gets to sleep next to my medicator
You're mine, mine, mine, mine
You're mine, mine, mine, mine
You're mine, mine, mine, mine
You're mine, mine, mine.

And now I'm ruminating, ruminating
Now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating
All the things you said.

Why can't you wait for me to come home?
This conversation's too big for a phone call.

Ruminating, ruminating
I've been up all night
Did you kiss her on the lips and look into her eyes?
Did you have fun?
Now that it's done
Baby, won't you tell me that I'm still your number one?
'cause you're my number one.

I told you, all of this has been too brutal
You told me that you felt the same, it's mutual
And then you came out with this line so crucial
Yeah, "If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?
If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
But what a line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line, line, line
What a fucking line
What a fucking line.

Ruminating, ruminating
Now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating
All the things you said.

Why can't you wait for me to come home?
This conversation's too big for a phone call.

Ruminating, ruminating
I've been up all night
Did you kiss her on the lips and look into her eyes?
Did you have fun?
Now that it's done
Baby, will you tell me that I'm still your number one?
'cause you're my number one.

Ruminating, ruminating
Now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating
All the things you said.

Why can't you wait for me to come home?
This conversation's too big for a phone call.

Ruminating, ruminating
I've been up all night
Did you kiss her on the lips, and look into her eyes?
Did you have fun?
Now that it's done
Baby, will you tell me I'm still your number one?
