Truths Never Spoken

(Verse 1) In the shadows of my heart, a secret softly bleeds, A love that's locked away, in silent, unseen deeds. Caught up in the whispers, of what could never be, I hide behind a smile, while drowning in the sea. (Pre-Chorus) We laugh, we cry, we share our deepest fears, But in the echo of your voice, my heart just disappears. I know it's wrong to feel this way, to keep it all inside, But losing you completely tears me up inside. (Chorus) So I'll scream it in my sleep, and whisper to the stars, Confess it to the moonlight, but never to your heart. For I'd rather hold you close, in friendship's gentle embrace, Than risk the bond we share, for a love that's out of place. (Verse 2) You're the melody in every song, the color in the sky, But I'm the silent bystander, watching as you fly. I'll be your rock, your shoulder, your constant guiding light, Even if it means I'll never hold you through the night. (Pre-Chorus) We dance around the words, we never dare to say, But in every fleeting moment, my heart just slips away. I know it's selfish, this hidden love I keep, But losing you completely feels like falling into the deep. (Chorus) So I'll scream it in my sleep, and whisper to the stars, Confess it to the moonlight, but never to your heart. For I'd rather hold you close, in friendship's gentle embrace, Than risk the bond we share, for a love that's out of place. (Bridge) Maybe in another life, our story could've changed, But for now, I'll cherish every moment, in the friendship we've arranged. I'll keep this love a secret, buried deep inside, And pray that our connection will never be denied. (Chorus) So I'll scream it in my sleep, and whisper to the stars, Confess it to the moonlight, but never to your heart. For I'd rather hold you close, in friendship's gentle embrace, Than risk the bond we share, for a love that's out of place.
