2 birds in love, they lived together for awhile
beautiful home and around are pictures of them with smiles
but the home is usually empty throughout the day and it’s pitch quiet at night
well most of the time, just... not when they fight

lost and changed brother, who wanted to give his all
eyes are distracting him from landing his own fall.
running through the space, she hit him with a wall,
a broken arm didn't prepare him for his heart.

it was mental and physical, the abuse that he encountered
he always wanted to work it out, but the screams would get louder
the anger would build, but the sadness would, too
How can the same person say they,
β€œlove you” and β€œhate you”?

He loved her. She loved him.
but she didn't know what she wanted.
he gave up all his heart, it wasn't the same for her.
it was like their love was stuck in reverse

and it gets crazy when two hearts don’t connect,
especially when the words they want to say don't interject.
feelings always stayed in their hearts, the same place,
and the way they showed love stayed the same.

the boy fell in love, but the girl would lie
the boy wanted to leave but he was already trapped
this is when the problems started to arise,
because he found another boy while he was stuck inside.

He asked him questions, the answers he couldn’t believe
how long they’ve been together, this is how she treats?
the woman who was supposed to be his queen
became another bad dream with sleep paralysis

now they’re getting tired of the beautiful home
beautiful pictures shattered and everything thrown
holes in the door and clothes on the floor
a look inside of the beautiful home that started a war

she got tired, she was bored, she wasn't real.
this whole time, he was head over heels.
But even though, she still left, he still loved.
now she is coming back, asking and pleading for his trust.

Isn't that crazy? Isn't that hard?
she is going from "I love you" to wanting to start a war,
and when you try to fight, she says it's not enough,
and when you try to let go, she says you’ve never loved.

He doesn't want to move on, he’s still fighting.
He doesn’t want to cry, he’s still smiling.
He doesn’t want to leave, he still wants her,
but even though he doesn’t want to go, he has to.

but he was curious about the love that they had,
closure can’t bring him back to where he was, that’s all gone.
baby girl thinks she can come back from all that.
She was all wrong.

Now he knows that he can do better with his heart.
Now he knows that she’s been playing since the start.
