The Words I Never Said
Location
I still remember when I saw you
Sweat so sweet and eyes so bright
My heart froze instantly at your sight
But my head knew what you would do
I still remember when you said my name
How could the average sound so strange?
My heart melted because of you
But my head knew what you would do
When I try to speak back,
It was the absence of sound
Seeing you was a heart attack
Courage is what I never found
Frustrated, alone, late in the night
You weren’t here, so away I’d write
Late to the a.m., my hands would be dead
Only the moon knew the words I never said
Just how damaged three years can make a soul
How angry and tired could I become?
For the lack of courage I had to promises
A lack of personality to show to you, Adonis
You give me life
You give me death
You take my strife
You take my breath
When I try to speak back,
It was the absence of sound
Seeing you was a heart attack
Courage is what I never found
Frustrated, alone, late in the night
You weren’t here, so away I’d write
Late to the a.m., my hands would be dead
Only the moon knew the words I never said
Only the moon could hear my confession
Of a love drunk dumb fuck’s obsession
Only the moon saw my tears
That came from all fears
What if? Is a dangerous disease
What if you hate me?
What if you leave me?
What if you stay with me?
What if you care for me?
For that fear, I held my head high
That final year before our goodbye
I told you new words, the moon didn’t hear
About how I loved you and your dear
Words of confession but words of admiration
To showcase how I’d leave the obsession
If you’d only give me a chance, you see?
Maybe there was still time for you and me
Not out of lust and not out of desire
But out of trust and out of admirable fire
Your promises seemed so golden
But I just bit into a fool’s gin
The words I had and the words I said
I thought would change our broken thread
But I was a fool to ever believe
There was ever going to be a you and me
Everyone saw the outcome
Everyone saw the reality
I never saw your true face
Never saw your true personality
Frustrated, alone, late in the night
You weren’t here, so away I’d write
Late to the a.m., my hands would be dead
Only the moon knew the words I never said
Late in the dark, pen and paper where I laid
Only the moon knew the words I never said
Late in the a.m., tears would fade
Only the moon knew the words I never said
