What We Didn’t Say

You left your hoodie On the back of my chair Smells like last winter And the weight of the air You said “it’s better” I said “I don’t care” Should’ve fought harder But I just stood there Every “it’s fine” I threw at your face Was a brick in the wall I hate Every joke I used to hide the ache Now it’s all I taste These are the regrets we have Every word we choked back You turned away I stayed silent Now the silence screams back All of the regrets we have Cut deeper than the cracks We broke our hearts in half For what we didn’t say Didn’t say I kept my anger Folded tight in a drawer Thought you’d unfold it You just locked the door You asked “you okay?” I lied “yeah I’m fine” Should’ve said “I’m drowning” I just drew the line Every “it’s cool” I threw in your face Was a mask over all my rage Every laugh to keep the peace in place Now it’s just decay These are the regrets we have Every word we choked back You turned away I stayed silent Now the silence screams back All of the regrets we have Cut deeper than the cracks We broke our hearts in half For what we didn’t say Didn’t say I should’ve begged you to stay I should’ve ripped down my pride I should’ve called out your name Instead of watching you slide You took your suitcase Took my spine I took your secrets Made them mine We burned it down with quiet wars Now we’re bleeding on the floor These are the regrets we have Every word we choked back You turned away I stayed silent Now the silence screams back All of the regrets we have Echo loud in the past We tore our future down For what we didn’t say Didn’t say You haunt my house You haunt my name Wish I’d held on Wish I walked away These are the regrets we have And they never fade
