"In Return"

I say I'm okay

Because I'm in love with you

Even when I know you don't love me back

I say I'm okay

Because I'm afraid to lose you

Even when you promised you would never leave

I say I'm okay

Because I'm afraid I'll scare you away

Even when you say my happiness means the world to you

I say I'm okay

Because despite what you say

You've never really been there for me at all


And even though

You don't return

All the things I do for you

I still go out of my way

Every day

To ensure your happiness


Because you say you're okay

Even when I know you're struggling in your classes

And you say you're okay

Even when I know you want to give up

You say you're okay

Even when I know you're still hurt by her

You say you're okay

Even when I know you're nowhere near it


But I make sure your safe anyway

Because I know that you need me

Because I don't want to lose you

Because I love you even if you don't love me at all
