People love me, I know they do
But I’m ashamed to be close to you
I pull away, I lose my ground
Not hiding — just slowly backing down
I want to return, I want to stay
To fix the things I broke along the way
I replay words, I replay scenes
But nothing ends the way it means
I have no friends, not anymore
I walk away before I fall apart
I don’t want them to see my eyes
The tears on my face, the cracks in my heart
I try to stand there, face to face
But shame keeps pushing me out of place
I feel the tears start burning through
And once again, I run from you
I have no friends, not anymore
I disappear before I break
I don’t want them to see my eyes
The tears on my face I cannot fake
I’m not hiding in the dark
I’m just afraid of being seen
Every time I try to stay
I fall apart in between
I have no friends, not anymore
I walk away before I cry
I don’t want them to see my eyes
The tears on my face as I say goodbye
One day I’ll learn to stay
Without running away
But tonight, I turn my head
No friends — just tears I never said
