And I cannot cry because they'd see my swollen eyes They'd taste the salt in the air and hear my sobs through the night So I'll wait for someone to ask if I'm alright Want to tell the truth so bad but you taught so good to lie

Lies
It used to be your pleasure I soaked up with the tissues Now they can't seem to get enough of my tears Sometimes I let them be when I lay down to sleep They roll down my face as if in a race and I'll bet on which one first reaches my ears It's the only thing I haven't been wrong about in years

Consequences
And I was used to it The unsteady moods and sudden attacks I'd changed into someone who couldn't be hurt Stopped trying to fix his errors by addressing them first I'd just never expected to be needing that back Good I kept all my baggage and never unpacked

Baggage
Lately life's been kind to me Not a bad thought crossed my mind for weeks I miss how they ate me and hate how they shaped me How no matter the feeling they always seem the better company

In love with the unkind
And maybe I just love who you could be Falling for the green light like that fool did in Gatsby My mind is my enemy and you are my daisy Pick pick pick my petals until there's nothing left of me

Daisy
It's not gonna last forever I can't seem to decide if it fills me with delight or terror Do I long for a sickness to shorten the days I've left to live? An excuse so I'm not at fault and there's nothing to forgive? It's not gonna last forever I could cry for days on end Not because I bleed and hurt But because I'm so sick to pretend That I don't
