歌詞

These are the things you never asked

The truths I kept behind the mask

Like how I watched you while you slept

Or all the fears I never wept

The love I tried so hard to show

In ways you never got to know

You never asked what made me stay

Through quiet nights and breaking day

Or how my hands would shake with doubt

Each time I thought you'd walk out

But silence makes a softer bed

Than words we wish we never said

So I just smiled and held it in

The war beneath my fragile skin

These are the things you never asked

The truths I kept behind the mask

Like how I watched you while you slept

Or all the fears I never wept

The love I tried so hard to show

In ways you never got to know

You didn’t ask what songs I played

When missing you began to fade

Or why I kept your broken chain

As if it could relieve the pain

We shared a life in quiet ways

But never dared to lift the haze

And maybe love was always there

Just buried under too much care

These are the things you never asked

The truths I kept behind the mask

Like how I watched you while you slept

Or all the fears I never wept

The love I tried so hard to show

In ways you never got to know

One day you might uncover them

In songs or notes I never send

And find a love that always grew

In every quiet thing I do

These are the things you never asked

But now they're laid in lines at last

I speak them now, though you're not here

To every shadow, every tear

The love you never had to seek

Was pouring from me every week
