I see the way your eyes dart left

When you think I won’t detect

Your little trips, your secret texts

You don’t even know you confess

Your silence says more than your words

Every excuse every line feels rehearsed

You love her. You don’t even know it

You hide it, but you always show it

When you’re with her, you come alive

And I’m just the shadow standing by

Your laugh is louder when she’s near

Your walls come down. I disappear

You say you care, but it’s halfhearted

Like I’m the pause where she’s the start

I won’t beg I won’t fight

You’re not mine to keep tonight

I deserve more than stolen time

While your heart whispers her name, not mine

You love her you don’t even know it

You hide it, but you always show it

When you’re with her, you come alive

And I’m just the shadow standing by
