Sometimes Love Isn't Big


BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i put myself out 

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i let you manipulate me

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i hide from my feelings

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i distract you in class

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i can never tell you the truth

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i distract my own feelings

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i hide the truth about myself

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i let myself forget that you don't know i exist

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU i put quiet feelings in front of everything else

you will never know how I feel,

but that's okay 

because still, I love you
