Ever since I've been back I've been too tired to express myself
But you smile every time you see me
And that makes me bubble up inside
Which- I should admit. Has only happened with one other
-
Sometimes you act tough in front of your friends
It's cute that you put on a show
But I wish I had the energy to tell you what's on my mind
However, culturally- I'm not supposed to let you know.
