If love is an ocean
then you are the waves
and I am drowning

It was too hard to tell you I missed you
so I carved each letter into my skin
and hoped you'd pull up my sleeve
but you never did

I kissed a girl
and her lips tasted like a July summer
but we all know summer fades into fall
and as the leaves fall apart and die
we will too

(You) told me you loved me
but we both know you (didn't)
and I wanted to (show) you how much better I could be
but I realised it wouldn't make (a) difference
and I still (care)
because you were it (for) me
you were the one for (me)
and I say I don't miss you (at all)
but I do
I love you
Please come back

On the night that I thought I could stop missing you
I went to that party that I said I wouldn't go to
and I drank more drink than I knew I had
I kissed those girls with the empty eyes and mouths that tasted like smoke
questioning why it felt wrong
until I realised that taste was yours
and ******* did I feel alone
