The promises I kept

I did my best

I told you

I did

Didn't I?

I am not ok

And I am not afraid to say it tonight

I told you

I see these things

It's WHAT I DO

I notice

Don't put on a show

And look away from me to watch someone else

"Are they watching too?"

Should it matter?

I notice

Don't think I don't

It's that feeling I get

My chest is tight

Feels like I'm drowning

I haven't felt the water in a while

You still care and I can see it

It's hard for the fox to jump over the dog

Hard not to look at what you lost

I get it

I'm not afraid anymore

So I'll just patiently wait for the truth

I'm tired of questions

It was a promise

I'll do what everyone does

I'm not afraid

I'll break

Not because of this

Ill break because it's suppose to matter

And right now

It doesn't
