brush fire - gracie abrams

your eyes have worn a darker color lately
they've always been so bright but for a while now they've been kinda shady
and i fear that, maybe, it may just be your happiness fading
tell me you're not also feeling hollow daily
i'm sorry for making it about me

we both blame eachother for the things we couldn't change
not hard to see we're both bad at communicating
we hate it when it comes along with seasons changing

we were just kids so it's nothing
but that's something i pretend to believe
until falling apart is something that i've grown to love
and i want to go back to what used to be
you fading from me is the most beautiful thing to be scared of

i'll keep it between you and i that things weren't quite the same lately
sometimes you hold onto me
but sometimes i think you would like me to disappear

i'm lucky we're not strangers yet, i fear
give it to my overthinking that i never tell you what's been hurting me
let's be honest, most people i love probably think i'm pathetic
and i just hope you're not one of these

i'm lucky we're not strangers yet, i feargive it to my overthinking that i never tell you what's been hurting melet's be honest, most people i love probably think i'm patheticand i just hope you're not one of these
