lyrics

I know your wondering whats going on inside my head
Trust me I'm fine, talk about you instead
Trust me it is hard for us to deal with
Yet opportunity lies nowhere near this

I wish I could say it out loud
I've felt nothing over these past few years
I love you was always a lie
I said yes but I never tried
I'm more afraid of being alone, than happy

I know you've waited for me to come around
God knows, I've lurked too long in the dark crawl spaces
I put the pressure under me to change
Can't fix who i am when only nature is to blame, well

I wish I could say it out loud
I'm miserable and hate all these things about myself
I love you was always a lie
I said yes but I never tried
I'm more afraid of being alone, than happy

It has been years since I've thought of your kiss
And maybe a few other parts I truly do miss
I have become quite the husk
And it pains me to know you've moved on, too. Well

I wish I could say it out loud
I've felt nothing over this time remiss
I love you was always a lie
I said yes but I never tried
I'm more afraid of being alone, than happy

Oh I wish I could say it out loud that
I'd take everything back if only to forgive myself
I love you was never a lie
I said yes this time I'll try
I'm more afraid of being alone and happy
