17 to 8

I saw myself in you sometimes
I kept myself up awake at night for you
What you had wasn’t what you want
But you don’t know what you want until it’s gone
I kept my feet up when you cleaned
I made myself keep quiet when you lie
It’s such a shame for us to be
Forever encased in harmony at heart but not mind
I wrote down the names of people
I would rather have spent a year beside than you
And there were none
I kept my feet up when you cleaned
I made myself keep quiet when you lie
