I don’t understand why
You wanted to play me
I gave you time and space
And this is how you repay me

The mirror can’t see what I won’t show
The things I don’t even want to know
I led myself into this game
I watched myself emerge in shame
I closed my eyes to hide the fear
But all the words I could still hear
Everything I could still feel
Oh how I wish this wasn’t real

I felt the butterflies again
But they came with fears
Because your lips kissed me
For the first time in two years
You asked me on a date
The moment I’ve anticipated
Got my hopes up so high
And then retreated
You’re falling back
Like I’m somehow scary
When you’re the one
Who had pursued me
I’m tired of playing this game
Do you even want to stay
Because every time I let you in
You run the other way
