Questions

The things I can't say,
they got in the way.
The inches between,
you, your lips, and me.
Wasn't raised a fool,
taught to keep it cool.
Under wraps, hush, hush,
no one's business but us.

Should have said something,
indicated nothing.
So I got nothing
isn't that something?
I'm feeling ignored,
shattered on the floor
Was I a distraction?
Were you kind of bored?

Questions, questions,
don't answer my questions.
I don't need anything from you,
no safety net to catch me in.
All I wanted was you,
maybe you found someone new,
for all you know I did too,
but I didn't and I'm sitting,
home alone and I'm wishing,
that this all played out different.

The things I can't do,
got in between us two.
I wanted to move closer,
but I turned my shoulder,
and just went to sleep,
my feet on your feet.'.
Woke early to my alarm,
and just like that I was gone.

Should have done something,
but I did nothing.
So I got nothing,
Isn't that something?
I'm feeling removed.
Did I mean something to you?
It shouldn't matter,
but I know better.

Questions, questions,
don't answer my questions.
I don't need anything from you,
no safety net to catch me in.
All I wanted was you,
maybe you found someone new,
for all you know I did too,
but I didn't and I'm sitting,
home alone and I'm wishing,
that this all played out different.

If I could do it again,
could I beat my nerves?
Overcome my anxious heart?
Put caution to the curb?
Could I find the actions,
or at least the words?
To tell you what I feel,
in the way they deserve?

Questions, questions,
don't answer my questions.
I don't need anything from you,
no safety net to catch me in.
All I wanted was you,
maybe you found someone new,
for all you know I did too,
but I didn't and I'm sitting,
home alone and I'm wishing,
this all played out different,
but it didn't.
