I Wont Ask

I won’t ask you to laugh I won’t ask you to cry I won’t even ask you for a smile I won’t ask for help I won’t ask for mercy I won’t ask for anything I can’t ask you for anything I can’t bring myself to do it I won’t make you change your ways Just for me... I’ll never ask you to stay I’ll never ask you how you feel I’ll never ask anything of you That’s just how I am I never ask because I’m a bother I never ask because I’m obnoxious I never ask because that’s who I am I won’t ask you to stay I can’t even say “Can i stay with you?...” even just for a day I can’t say hello I hate to say goodbye Even if it means Turning a blind eye I won’t ask you to call I won’t ask for a ride I won’t ask at all I fear rejection I fear abandonment I fear everything That I can’t control I won’t inconvenience you I won’t make you change I won’t be a bother I’ll do what I do best... Disappear So if you ever wonder why You don’t see me anymore It’s because I won’t ask And I lost you I just wanted you to know That I cared And I tried But still... I couldn’t hide...
