Fake it till you make it?

I don’t feel much like faking it today. Can you show me that we’re gonna be ok?

Tell me I’m not competing for your love, that you’re not lying, wanting someone else.

I stay at your place, but we seldom ever touch. You tell me that you love me, I guess I don’t believe you much.

I see you on your phone, you keep hidden out of sight. You tell me what I need to know, that makes it seem alright.

I looked through it once, I’ll bet you didn’t even know, I know more than I say, I know more than you know.

The names and faces protected in your phone, although we’re sitting side by side, I still feel all alone.

The truths that you are keeping, I tried to help you tell me. But you just keep denying, and I will just let them be

Completely broken, we pretend we are ok, forever tangled in the words we never say.

Tied to the memories captive in our heads, wasting love and time the other won’t except.

So tonight I lay alone in bed, broken here in another room. With these memories stuck, frozen in my head.

The ones I treasured, saved of you and me. Remembering when we stayed awake all night, neither wanted sleep

Our bodies one, we couldn’t get enough, Promises made of never-ending love.

Waiting for the right time I will call your bluff. Doubting everything you said, or if I ever was enough.

Yeah, I’m wishing we could just go back in time. When I was yours and I knew you were mine.

But fate played a trick that we both fell hard for. We lost that game when we started keeping score!
