if i could look into your eyes
maybe it would all be clear
but if i saw through your disguise
you still wouldn’t stay here

you have to leave to chase your dreams
i have to stay and watch mine go
you can’t afford to give me hope
i can’t let you know…

i always hoped you cared for me
but i loved how you were so carefree
i’m hopelessly hopeful that someday you’ll see
everything you missed in me

what thought can i scribble down
to send you in this postcard
a picture of what you left behind
and me pretending life isn’t hard

i guess i’m no good at secrets
still don’t know what to say
i think of you, i pray for you
i hope you are ok
