I think I lied when I said I've moved on when I dated someone new when I let them leave and my heart didn't even have a clue if I still loved you could we work again? I tried, yet I can't see myself with anyone anyone again I think I lied when I said I hated you when I still want you to know that I'm happy with or without you that I'm happy if I still loved you could I learn your name? I tried last time but I couldn't read your eyes eyes, eyes I think I lied when I said I've moved on when I rewrote a letter justifying my hesitancy the emotions I still have and the way I'd let you kiss me I think I lied when I said I hated you sure, you hurt me, but I hurt you too, and walls can be rebuilt even if the city burnt down for a good reason I think I've lied since you handed me that calculator since I hesitated to answer since you met me in the library since I let you walk away with my heart since I still love you it would feel like a crime if we tried, if I asked you this time, again and again I think you lied when you looked away when I passed you in the halls avoiding me for reasons I guess I could never know
