❒ When you move away
When you leave me here.
I'm going to be so scared
It's all I fear.
Words I never told
Ones I never will.
Keeping them to me,
So not to hurt us even more.
Do I just feel this way?
Or do you as well.
Are we both keeping this a secret.
Or do you not feel this way at all.
Don't hurt me,
But please, I'm begging you to rip me apart
I want you to make problems
Make my life hell
Rip my heart to shreds on the way out
Light my heart with joy
Just to spit the first flame.
It's better to love than never loved at all?
It's better to ignore all of what I feel so I don't hurt yo.
Don't hurt us.
You'll find another
Big town, lots of people
Better than I could ever be, or will
We're not perfect, not at all
But you feel like the perfect imperfections fit
Better to love in secret than to tell you.
Better to love in my mind, so you'd think I'll be okay
Better to love in private, not to annoy anyone
Better to love and lost, better to love and loose. I don't believe it
Hurting you is something that I can't do, but loving you in the harsh truth I won't tell you.
