I don't hate you, I just need some time alone

I'm sorry I can't stay, I'd rather be at home

I know you feel the same, I can see it in your eyes

Can't make eye contact but can see right through their lies

Why don't you tell me how you feel?

I'm tired of waiting

I want this to be real

I'm nervous, observing

So determined it's concerning

I'm a burden and I'm hurting

Go easy on me, I'm learning

Is it ever going to be enough?

I know it's not easy but

It shouldn't be this tough

I don't hate you, I just need some time alone

I'm sorry I can't stay, I'd rather be at home

I try to speak but my mind is deep in thought

They're calling me back to earth

Like I'm an astronaut
