It's been so long...
It shouldn't be this hard.
You take so much out of her
And you don't even know it.
She can't trust any more.
He compliments her,
She refuses to let herself accept it.
He tells her he likes her,
She tells herself he's lying.
He goes offline, says goodbye,
And she feels insecure - lost.
You probably don't mean to,
You probably don't even know
That this is what you've done.
No, of course it's not
Your fault.
The fault is hers,
For falling in love.
The fault is hers,
For making assumptions.
It's her fault.
She's falling for him,
Being insecure,
Seeking reassurance
Every second
Of every minute
Of every hour
Of every day.
All the time.
You're on her mind
All the time
Taunting. Daring.
And you don't even know it.
Or do you?
