Second Try

Didn’t we just lose it all?
I am not supposed to fall
You look at me, I look away
Fighting to resist this every day

I laughed harder and I tried more
Every day made me a little less sure
What is it that you want from me?
Tears, pain, hate or lies maybe?

I see you look at me in the window’s reflection,
Inside I fight not to show my affection
I try to act like there’s nothing wrong,
Like we have been friends all along
I act like it don’t hurt, like everything’s okay,
Still I die inside each time I slowly walk away
I wish that you would follow, but you keep passing me by
Maybe I’m not worthy of a second try

I smile as I lie sleeping
with your hoodie around me
Then the spell is swiftly broken
when I recall that there’s no “we”

You reach out your hands
And the moment’s standing still
I ignore the feelings inside
And refuse me my own will

I see you look at me in the window’s reflection,
Inside I fight not to show my affection
I try to act like there’s nothing wrong,
Like we have been friends all along
I act like it don’t hurt, like everything’s okay,
Still I die inside each time I slowly walk away
I wish that you would follow, but you keep passing me by
Maybe I’m not worthy of a second try

You did something to me that’s never been done before
You stole my heart and you kept it safe forevermore
You broke down my defence and now there’s not much more to do
My love is kept secret until it is spent on you

I see you look at me in the window’s reflection,
Inside I fight not to show my affection
I try to act like there’s nothing wrong,
Like we have been friends all along
I act like it don’t hurt, like everything’s okay,
Still I die inside each time I slowly walk away
I wish that you would follow, but you keep passing me by
Maybe I’m not worthy of a second try

Those looks and sequences mean everything to me,
Can’t things just go back to the way they used to be?

I see you look at me in the window’s reflection,
Inside I fight not to show my affection
I try to act like there’s nothing wrong,
Like we have been friends all along
I act like it don’t hurt, like everything’s okay,
Still I die inside each time I slowly walk away
I wish that you would follow, but you keep passing me by
Maybe I’m not worthy of a second try
