1 step forward, 3 steps back - olivia rodrigo

i remember that time when i picked up your call and you were crying
but god what would i do so that my head finally stops reminding me
because now i can't help but feel lonely at night

i lost the sparkle in my eyes but i still smile so you don't mind
what's going inside your head, do you care that i'm not alright?

in a room full of people, i block the noises out and crave for silence
in a room rather quiet, you'd think i'd actually find it
but my thoughts get too loud and it gets harder to hide that

almost falling to the ground, i can't help but let your words get to me
run out the door and shut me out and i don't think that i can let it be
but then you left and hell, without you here, nothing feels like a priority

almost falling to the ground, i can't help but let your words get to merun out the door and shut me out and i don't think that i can let it bebut then you left and hell, without you here, nothing feels like a priority
