What I Didn't Know - Athenaeum

I complain

When nothing’s even wrong

And you’re ashamed

Cause you’re not quite that strong

That’s when I said I’ll need

More than you can offer me I miss your face as you can tell

I hope my absence makes you well

Cause what I didn’t know

Is I was killing you

I said a lot of things that I didn’t mean to But I am older now

And I am sorry too

So I can wait awhile

If it brings me back to you

I am shy

I never speak a word

And you are numb

From all the things you never heard

That’s when I said I’ll need

More than you can offer me But now I own an empty space

And I can’t fill it with your face

Cause what I didn’t know

Is I was killing you

I said a lot of things that I didn’t mean to But I am older now

And I believe in you

So I can wait awhile

If it brings me back to you
