You Hide The Texts - ArlenaZara
We used to leave our phones right on the bed
Now yours is in your pocket, heavy like lead
You turn the screen away when it lights up the dark
And every little buzz puts a crack in my heart
You look at the screen and you suddenly smile
And tell me you haven't checked it in a while
You hide the texts
You hide the truth
You trade our beautiful years for a stranger's youth
I see the secrets you try to keep down
While my whole world is spinning around
You say it is nothing
But I know what is next
When you hide the texts
You take a shower and you take your phone inside
How many messages do you have to hide?
I asked you who was calling, you just looked away
I felt our forever end on that very day
I don't need the passwords, I don't need the key
To know that you are really looking at me
I don't need to read them to know what they say
I feel you slipping further and further away
A screen full of lies and a heart made of stone
I am sitting right beside you
But I am so alone
Cause you hide the texts
You hide the truth
You trade our beautiful years for a stranger's youth
I see the secrets you try to keep down
While my whole world is spinning around
You say it is nothing
But I know what is next
When you hide the texts
You hide the truth for me
Oh, you can't hide the pain
Nothing is ever going to be the same
I am packing my bags
You hide the text
