How Was Your Day

I been through hell

Burned my tongue on every truth I never tell

Left my phone on read

Staring at the ceiling like it owes me back my head

Ash in my lungs

Empty cabinet

All the liquor been drunk

You hit my line

Pop up on the screen like a lifeline

I been through hell

How was your day

You say “it’s fine” but your voice give you away

Slide through the door

Throw your guard in the hallway

We can talk

We can touch

We can both not be okay

I been through hell

How was your day

You say “it’s fine

” I hear storms in what you say

If you just want a body to chase the dark away

We can fall

We can fake

We can both not be okay

Keys on the counter

Shoes by the couch

Yeah

You move like you’re tired of your armor

Mascara smudged

Laugh when you say you don’t really want love

But you lean in close

Tracing old scars like you’re reading my ghosts

One heavy breath

We both know this is a bad idea at best (oh)

I been through hell

How was your day

You say “it’s fine” but your eyes still look afraid

Hands on my chest like you’re trying to get away

From the weight

From the ache

From the words you never say

I been through hell

How was your day

If all we got is an hour where it’s okay

Let your heart

Let your hurt

Let your halo fall astray

We can break

We can burn

We can both not be okay
