lyrics

I've been biting my tongue just so you couldn't tell
I wasn't keeping it together, I’m just hiding it well
Everything you're feeling, I was feeling it too
I'm just trying my best to be there for you

I'm not looking for an answer
I'm hiding my reactions
I tried every distraction that I know
Cause the moment I stop moving
Even for a second
I remember what has happened
He won't be there when we come back home

I know that you told me, "It's OK to be sad"
I was too busy being angry to even think about that
See I get tunnel vision, it's just you that I see
When I know you're alright I'll start thinking bout me

I'm not looking for an answer
And I'm hiding my reactions
I tried every distraction that I know
Cause the moment I stop moving
Even for a second
I remember what has happened
He won't be there when we come back home

Everything you're feeling, I was feeling it too
I'm just trying my best to be there for you

I'm not looking for an answer
And I'm hiding my reactions
I tried every distraction that I know
Cause the moment I stop moving
Even for a second
I remember what has happened
He won't be there when we come back home
