Lyrics
We were having too much fun
We were enjoying ourselves greatly.
When we saw the morning sun
Our enjoyment continued until the morning sun appeared.
And I knew that we were done

But I didn't want to run
Despite the realization, I didn't want to end it and leave.

And you never see me cry
Despite the situation, I don't display my emotions by crying.

All I want is to hold you closer, please come over, come to me

-I saw the way you look at him

I could lie but why try

And you know better than anyone

I'm holding back the flood gates

These lies I'm telling myself
Admitting to self-deception and lies.
What I got to do to get me through

Living in denial cause it's
Living in denial because it seems to be the best coping strategy.
The best that I can do
