I Don't Tell You
You told me my lips was filled with love and sweetness
I don't tell you yours was boredom and pity.
You told me that my lips felt like regrets and bitterness
I don't tell you that yours taste of cigarettes and her.
You asked me why my hugs are cold and distant
I don't tell you it's because your arms don't feel like home.
I asked you why your eyes are ice cold over time
But I don't tell you why the stars are dead in mine.
You ask me while I wear a smile like a funeral
I don't ask you why yours is a copy-and-paste.
You said it sounded like goodbye when I said I love you
I don't tell you yours sounded like an apology.
You told me not to leave when I said goodbye
I don't tell you you're already half-way out the door.
