Confessions

You watch me like you're watching a ghost

If we weren't just two Platonic friends

I wouldn't have spoke

But I can't sit in the dark and

Listen when you talk

Pretending you're not the one that I want

We sit on separate sides you're careful, I'm too reckless but

I hold my knees, the sky turns navy

And we know there's no us

Because we'll wake up in the morning

And act like nothing’s happened

I'll do it again if it heals you

But the house is asleep, and I fill empty space with confessions

You're easy to talk to, so I tell you things that I shouldn't

You know that I'm not indifferent, oh I never was, and I can't be

We get close to each other, then fall back apart slowly

You held me, shut your fist around the moments we stole

If we can't be, then gradually

I forget what I'm owed

So, I can't sit on the porch and

Whisper like I'm your best friend

We're telling the truth, call it secrets

But the house is asleep, and I fill empty space with confessions

You're easy to talk to, so I tell you things that I shouldn't

You know that I'm not indifferent, oh I never was, and I can't be

We get close to each other, then fall back apart slowly

And it pains me to talk like this

Say I'm crazy for wanting this

But you're close and it's late

So, I'm not thinking like I should

I'll tell you the half of it

If we should've, we would've been

So, I'm waiting for you in vain

Like a lover would
