Confessions
Whispers in the Night: Unveiling Hidden Confessions
Lyrics
You watch me like you're watching a ghost
You observe me intensely as if I'm a specter or an apparition.
If we weren't just two platonic friends
If our relationship wasn't purely platonic,
I wouldn't have spoke
I wouldn't have expressed myself or spoken up.
But I can't sit in the dark and
However, I can't remain silent and
Listen when you talk
Just listen when you speak,
Pretending you're not the one that I want
Pretending that you're not the one I desire.
We sit on separate sides you're careful, I'm too reckless but
We're seated on different sides; you're cautious while I'm reckless,
I hold my knees, the sky turns navy
I hug my knees, the sky darkens,
And we know there's no us
And we acknowledge there's no 'us' between us.
Because we'll wake up in the morning
Because come morning,
And act like nothings happened
We'll act as if nothing significant occurred.
I'll do it again if it heals you
I'll repeat it if it brings you comfort,
But the house is asleep, and I fill empty space with confessions
But the household is asleep, and I fill the emptiness with my confessions.
You're easy to talk to so I tell you things that I shouldn't
You're easy to talk to, so I divulge things I shouldn't.
You know that I'm not indifferent, oh I never was and I can't be
You're aware I'm not indifferent; I never was and can't be.
We get close to each other, then fall back apart slowly
We draw near, then slowly drift apart.
You held me, shut your fist around the moments we stole
You held me, preserving the moments we stole together.
If we can't be, then gradually
If we can't be together, then gradually,
I forget what I'm owed
I forget what I deserve or am entitled to.
So I can't sit on the porch and
Thus, I can't sit on the porch and
Whisper like I'm your best friend
Whisper as if I'm your closest companion.
We're telling the truth, call it secrets
We're being honest, calling it secrets,
But the house is asleep, and I fill empty space with confessions
But the household is asleep, and I fill the emptiness with my confessions.
You're easy to talk to so I tell you things that I shouldn't
You're easy to talk to, so I divulge things I shouldn't.
You know that I'm not indifferent, oh I never was and I can't be
You're aware I'm not indifferent; I never was and can't be.
We get close to each other, then fall back apart slowly
We draw near, then slowly drift apart.
And it pains me to talk like this
It pains me to converse in this manner.
Say I'm crazy for wanting this
Others might think I'm irrational for desiring this.
But you're close and it's late
But you're close, and it's late,
So I'm not thinking like I should
So I'm not thinking as I should.
I'll tell you the half of it
I'll tell you only a part of it,
If we should've, we would've been
If we were meant to be, we would've already been together.
So I'm waiting for you in vain
So I'm waiting for you hopelessly,
Like a lover would
Just as a lover would wait.
