A sea of stars shines when you sing
Sweet strawberries sprout where you spring
You're sugar & salt & the sunrise
Hypnotize me with your starry eyes
Just to look into them with my own
Is something that I've never known
I can't bear to keep being alone
& I just want to call you my own
But you aren't in love, my love
You aren't in love with me
& I can't make it happen
I can't make it be
& you don't know just how much I need you
It's in these lines that you'll never see
Strawberry-flavored words, I swallow them & make myself sick
When I stare at you it dilates my star-shaped irises
But you don't even know that I'm looking, you don't know that I'm longing
& so you don't know that I'm lying
When I say that I haven't been crying
But I want to keep you guiltless
It's not your fault that I'm like this
You don't deserve to be sad
Over feelings that you never had
