Words I’ll Never Say

[Verse 1]

Hiding inside
Faceless goodbyes
Can’t define the loss of you
The wound to my pride

[Pre-Chorus]

But seldom I cry
My tear ducts have dried
Believe me I’ve tried
Always fell behind

[Chorus]

And every time I’m asked
I will say “I’m okay”
I’ll tell you “I’m fine”, in every single way
Don’t want you to see my weakness inside
But the truth, that hurts, are the words I’ll never say

[Verse 2]

Too many hours
Not enough time
Can’t thrive without you
There’s a war in my mind

[Pre-Chorus]

But seldom I cry
My tear ducts have dried
Believe me I’ve tried
Always fell behind

[Chorus]

And every time I’m asked
I will say “I’m okay”
I’ll tell you “I’m fine”, in every single way
Don’t want you to see my weakness inside
But the truth, that hurts, are the words I’ll never say

[Bridge]

Outside is colder, now
You held my warmth, somehow
I’m talking, but there’s no sound
I think it’s time for the bow

[Pre-Chorus]

But seldom I cry
My tear ducts have dried
Believe me I’ve tried
Always fell behind

[Chorus]

And every time I’m asked
I will say “I’m okay”
I’ll tell you “I’m fine”, in every single way
Don’t want you to see my weakness inside
But the truth, that hurts, are the words I’ll never say

[Outro]

Yeah, the truth, that hurts, are the words I’ll never say
