Did I drag you along
I was under the impression
That things were going well
Why didn’t you mention
That you weren’t there
As my fingers combed through your hair
You said it’s been about a year
Give or take and you can no longer fake it
As you stared at the tv
And mumbled something about feeling empty
I knew there’s a truth I have to face
Do I have to face it now?
Did I somehow shut you out
What did I say that maybe
I should have kept to myself
Why didn’t you tell me
That you’d checked out
When you told me to just come to your house
You’d need two more weeks to work it out
Give or take and you can no longer fake it
As you sat in emergency
And said something about not wanting pity
I knew there’s a truth I have to face
Do I have to face it now?
When I noticed your breathing
Had slowed in time with the measure you need me
I knew there’s a truth I have to face
But I can’t face it now
