there's this thing you do
this facade you put on
you might think you're clever about it
but i know what lies behind
those sunken almond eyes of yours
it's a sea of repressed thoughts
and unconscious childhood memories
like your past doesn't belong to you
the you that i know
that you choose to present to me
and everyone around you
i'm not gonna act unbothered
it's a bit disheartening
that you don't trust me enough
to be honest
and would rather dance around it
until you've exhausted every muscle
every morsel of energy in your body
i just wish i knew why
