behind a corner
i think of you
cant hold your eye
but can make a fool
acting distracted
but fully glued
to every little thing
you do
and i said something
but not to you
oh good god
never to you
and it felt weird
and it's still new
coming off weird
but not trying to
and i'd meet your gaze
if it was that simple, see?
and i'd take the leap
but my confidence is atrophied
and my life is a mess
and i'm just me
so it's nothing, i swear
i lied through my teeth
like i am right now
a feeling so sweet
tampered down
by a will just as weak
