I've Noticed


I notice when you're head is down.

I can tell when you try to hide your frown.

But when I walk up and look you in the eyes,

You have the decency to lie and tell me that you're fine.

"I don't want to hear this, stop with the bull.

Tell me what's up, I've noticed how you've seemed dull."

But still you try and play it off like it's fine.

Ha, yeah, it's not like I haven't noticed the signs.

"I've noticed your arms when your sleeves drag up.

I've noticed you crying when you're all alone in your truck.

I won't leave you alone, no matter what answer you give.

I'm here for you and I'm here to stay because I want you to live."
