On the Button

#indiefolk #singersongwriter #intimatemusic I was at the start that day thought I’d just get through it sun was out already warm against my skin hit the screen beside me just to scan it through something caught my eye and I thought of you then then I saw you through the glass didn’t think it through my chest dropped when I knew it was you I thought I’d be fine just getting by but you walked in the room and I couldn’t lie you make it seem easy nothing had changed inside and I couldn’t get it out what I knew in your eyes you still take my words away you said something to me there I nodded like I knew I answered how I could but I wasn’t with you I kept it short and low I was backing away from you my hand was already on the button before I even knew I had to leave it before I said too much to you I thought I’d be fine just getting by but you walked in the room and I couldn’t lie you make it seem easy nothing had changed inside and I couldn’t get it out what I kept from your eyes you still take my words away I don’t say it out loud I don’t let it show but if I said it to you you’d see it in me it stays there with me more than I let you know I thought I’d be fine just getting by but you walked in the room and I couldn’t lie you make it seem easy nothing had changed inside and I couldn’t get it out what I still won’t say you still take my words before they stay
