The worst part is
I know you lie to me
I just want the truth
To spill from your lips
Paint me red with the words I know are in your head
But instead
You decide to cross me out
In thick black ink
With what you think I want to hear
But I need to hear what you really think
And one terrible part of this whole thing is
You know I’ll stay
I’ll stick around
Because I’ve been in love
For so long
It’s crushing me
But I’m not leaving
