...They Don't Know About Us...


It is painful to be with you

But your love is worth the pain

Deep in a closet where we can hardly breathe

Holding each other under a veil of deceit

Loving you but nobody can see it

Hickeys, kisses and gentle touches

Enough for them to speculate about us

Yet we can't accept what we have

Or just be happy together

Deflecting from the norm comes at a price

And in this case it's a heavy one to pay

But loving you is like taking a drug

The stronger it is, the more you get intoxicated

I don't know where we stand in future

But the present is our time to be

Maybe our love can't be exhibited

But it'll nonetheless be cherished.
