When You Understand Me - NiExshadow
I've spent so many nights
trying to explain
the quiet in my chest
the tears I couldn't name
You held me close but never really heard
the way my heart was breaking underneath the words
Maybe love was just too heavy
for the way we tried to be
Maybe when you understand me
it'll already be too late
You'll see the pieces of my heart you never tried to save
Maybe then you'll feel the weight
of every tear I couldn't show
But by the time you understand me
I'll already let you go
I whispered all my fears into your waiting hands
But you mistook my trembling for something you could mend
I needed you to hear me, not to fix what broke inside
But you only saw the surface while I quietly died
Maybe we spoke different languages
of loving and needing
Maybe when you understand me
when you hear the things I meant
You'll realize how many nights I cried without consent
Maybe then you'll feel the ache
of all the truths I had to swallow
But by the time you understand me
I'll be too far to follow
I hope you learn to listen to the hearts you hold someday
To feel the words unspoken that someone's scared to say
And maybe when you think of me
you'll finally see it clearly
I wasn't asking for perfection
just someone to see me
Maybe when you understand me
you'll replay where we went wrong
You'll hear the pain behind my voice that I carried for so long
Maybe then you'll love me
in the way you never could
But by the time you understand me
I'll be gone for good
Maybe in another life
you'd hear me from the start
But in this one you understand me
only when we're apart
