this one tells itself
ship circles back again
tears across a dripping word
two lives entwined but not the same
you'll sleep through anything
sleep just to wake again
eyes closed through nightmares
it's just a retelling
the forces that keep us apart
have their own names
they feel nothing and lie to our hearts
in a cruel connection and leaving no mark
all the forces that keep us apart
a bright truth far from you
you want this more than i do
no sorry, no pained returns
cold answers
cold answers
closets and cabinets
so full of young things
for all this time now
it's a secret kept from me
lines between us more than numbers
for every second we're together
these things can't change and never will
unspoken and with us forever
