Lyrics

[Verse 1] I try to smile and look away, Like your eyes don’t mess me up each day. I’ve built a wall, I’ve locked the door, But your name still echoes on my floor.

[Verse 2] They say it’s just a phase, I’m young— But it’s been months and it still stuns. I act like I’m just passing by, But inside I’m screaming "just say hi."

[Pre-Chorus] I know you don’t feel the same, And maybe that’s why I feel insane.

[Chorus] I shouldn’t feel this way, But your eyes pull me like a wave. I fight it, hide it, pray it fades— But some nights, I just break. I’m not supposed to care this much… But God, I wish I could be enough.

[Verse 3] Sometimes I rehearse what I’d say, Then I laugh and throw it all away. ‘Cause who would want someone like me, Who shakes and hides and can’t be seen?

[Bridge] Maybe I’m not normal, maybe I’m wrong— But your eyes have been my home all along. And I don’t need forever, or even a yes— Just one second where my heart gets to rest.

I see you smile… and I fall apart. Still, I swallow the urge to run into your arms.

[Final Chorus] I shouldn’t feel this way, But I’d give it all to hear you say That maybe—just maybe—you’ve felt it too… But I’ll keep pretending, Because I’ll never tell you.
