Maybe my hands weren't soft enough

Maybe my grip wasn't gentle enough

Maybe I'm full of shit; he had enough

He didn't know me yet; was that fair enough?


Sugarcoat all those candies as you like

You wiped every fingerprint to hide it from my sight

I still feel gentle at this point; I don't know why

I don't even want to know what I'll feel tonight


Embarrassment hovers me up in the sky

Should I even talk to you in person? I don't think I might

I should've done it first if I hadn't played my cards right

You had my cards in front of you, yet you chose to be blind


It hurts when you know it directly from me

But you asked another bird to tell me that you're sorry

My heart dropped and broke into glass-like pieces

How will I smooth out all my noticeable creases?


Questions cover my mind like dark clouds

They pile up to an insurmountable amount

When I knew it the first time, I said I didn't care

Sharp whispers echo in my mind; well, they still hide in there


Instead of bawling my emotions out in this piece,

I'll build myself up and prioritize my peace

Who knew what would happen to a bird and a doll?

They don't even go together after all


I can feel my jealousy filling me after that

But still, who knows? I don't want to crush my heart flat

"There's plenty of fish in the sea," That's what they say

I want to see their reaction when their courage takes someone away.
