Stay Appart
Stay Apart
Nope nothing is wrong
That’s what I say....
Pretending I am strong....
When inside I really want to runaway....
Hiding become so exhausting....
The smile fades as soon as I am alone....
So many tears on my pillow resting....
Wondering how I got here on my own....
Looking for away out of the darkness....
Apart of me knowing I deserve better....
Fear makes me settle for less....
And always thinking about another....
It seems no matter where I go or what I do....
He will always be in my heart....
My shell he’s been able to see through....
Both of us still afraid so we stay apart....
