I Still Love You - NiExshadow
I've been holding every feeling
Like a fire beneath my skin
All the words I never told you
Still keep echoing within
You were standing right beside me
But I let the silence win
And now I'm left with all the memories
Of what we could have been
I thought that hiding how I loved you
Would somehow keep me safe
But now the truth is all that's left here
In the ruins of this place
I should say it
I still love you even now
I should say it
I should say it
But the words just won't come out
You walked away
And I can't turn back time again
I should say it
But you're gone
And I'm breaking from within
You were waiting for an answer
I could see it in your eyes
But I froze inside the moment
Let you slip into goodbye
Now I whisper to the darkness
All the things I should have said
If you could hear my heart confessing
Would it matter anymore or is it dead
I kept the truth behind my heartbeat
Too afraid of getting hurt
But losing you was so much deeper
Than the pain I tried to avert
I should say it
I still love you even now
I should say it
I should say it
But the words just won't come out
You walked away
And I can't turn back time again
I should say it
But you're gone
And I'm breaking from within
If you ever think of me in the quiet of the night
Know I'm living with the sorrow of not fighting for your life
Maybe love was meant to fade
Maybe this is where we end
But the truth I never told you
Still burns beneath my skin
I should say it
But the moment's dead and gone
I should say it
But I'm not the one you lean upon
I'll carry this regret
Like a weight I can't forget
I should say it
I still love you
And I wish I told you then
