It is in plain sight for us
right in front of your eyes.
I was fool once, shame on him,
but now I'm being fool twice, so shame on me.
Second time I see the train pass,
should have take it and
I should have said no,
but your arms felt so good.
And you give me flowers
but I left them to die and
you don't see it but you keep your hope up.

That's not how love works.

And I only want to be alone,
but your friends text like they know
and they follow me everywhere I go.
Down shoulders, demure smile
I say I love you and then I turn back.
There is a deeper blue sky
and all the stars that shine,
are the same ones I saw, a long time ago.

But I don't know how to tell you,
because I'm every conversation
we get lost talking about "our love"
Maybe it's because im older now,
and I want a different kind of love.
But you should see the problem,
It isn't hard to let you go,
and that's not how love works.
