𝑱𝒖𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒉
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
i love you / i loved you / i miss you
you're the one person i want to talk to / you're the one person i can't talk to / you caused this sadness / what am i supposed to do without you
words run dry / the tears won't come / why can't i be enough, just once?
i shared my soul / but it's not enough / and you shared yours / but i couldn't make you stay
i was doing good / i was doing better / i can't feel my heart sometimes / i am doing worse
i thought we could grow together / now i have been uprooted / now i'm growing on my own / growing apart, growing away / do i make you a bad person? / am i a bad person too?
still friends / but i'm forcing myself not to spill feelings out of my fingers / you don't sound like you used to / or maybe it's me who is different / each memory cast in a new light
i don't know who i am when you're not there / you're slipping out of my fingers / i am slipping under the surface
you're sorry / i'm sorry / you can't do this / i can't do this / because after all, i love you / i loved you / i miss you
