Not this time
My hands aren't that empty
My lips aren't that lonely
My heart isn't that longing
My eyes aren't that weepy
My mind isn't that restless
I am not so hopeless
That every word from my mouth concerns you
I am not so forgotten
That every thought in my head describes you
This one isn't about you
It isn't about my regret
It's definitely not about my insecurity
I'm not pretending I'm fine
Just because you're not mine
And that surely did not rhyme
