Your stare is empty
as you look through me.
I remember when I said
"And I don't wanna go home right now because I don't wanna miss you tonight."
But now,
I think
Don't speak as I try to leave or I'll fall right back to you.
I want to tell you,
"Please know this isn't your fault."
We both know this isn't good for us.
And we both know what we'll choose.
I see you fading away as each day continues.
We walk along and refuse to make amends.
Because you pull and I push my way back to you.
I see my dreams divided and broken that I wish on over and over, sparkling in the night sky.
Only because you don't want me to see you break.
I tell you
"Don't speak as I try to leave,"
as I turn away
Cause we both know how this ends,
but it was worth it every time.
