Expressing uncertainty about the present affection received.
Me you, kept you, only yesterday.

Oh lover where’d you go?

In my heart I know I know.

Feels like we’re stalling, let’s talk in the morning,
Expressing a feeling of being stuck or halted, suggesting delaying a conversation until morning.
I don’t wanna do this now.

Coz it hurts us,
Acknowledging the pain caused to both individuals involved.
And we know us,
Recognizing the shared understanding between them.
And surely the ending is nigh?

Now all I can see is the lie.
