I Won't Complain

You don't know it
You don't know I'm in love
I won't say it
I won't complain

When you tell me about the boys you like
The ones who treat you like your only worth comes from your body and what you do with it
Like your only job is pleasing them
The ones who aren't there when you're sad
Don't worry I'll be there
When they suddenly change their mind
They'll forget your beauty and how perfect you are
I'll remind you

When you come to me torn apart over how no one notices you
I won't say it
But I promise, I do
I'll say, 'they're all just blind'
I'll list every wonderful thing about you
The way your hair falls framing your face
Your sleepy voice
Your adorable giggle

When you get cold and you pull me close
My heart beating out of my chest
Your head squishing my boob
My arm going numb
I won't complain

When I lay next to you at night
You'll steal the covers
You'll roll around hitting me in your sleep
You'll insist we leave the fan on freezing me to death
I won't say you look beautiful
Your hair is stuck to your face and you're all sweaty but,
You look peaceful
I won't complain

When you play your shitty music
I'll nod my head along
You'll be yelling out the lyrics
Moving your hips to the beat
You look so happy in these moments
I won't complain

When you make me watch the same movies for the millionth time
I'll watch you instead
The way your eyes light up in excitement
The way you squeal during cutesy romantic parts
How you cling to me when something scary happens
I won't complain

You could tear me apart
I'll still love you
You don't know that it's eating away at me slowly
But I won't complain
