lyrics

I heard you calling
I just didn't feel like talking
lately I haven't been feeling like myself
though these days appear so empty
my head is constantly filled with thoughts that
I lost all control of long ago

Tired of faking
so I'll try self isolating
no one can ask questions
if you're not around
but I'll keep up appearances
with the occasional post
a cup of coffee; sunlight shining through the trees

I'll come back someday
even though I pushed you away
I hope that you'll be around for us to mend
and I know this isn't fair but
I am trying my very best and I
hope you'll continue to understand
