Mascara Tears

I thought love was the greatest gift

That I could give to you

But I found out you like a darker tune

There was nothing I could do to save you

'Cuz it's a curse, your sympathy and fate

You never hesitate to forgive

But this world, it just takes and takes

There's only so much you can bear

Before you break

I adore you

How you break the rules

All the things you do to keep it true

I adore you

With your paralyzing fears

Your mascara tears

Why so hard on yourself

Now the sun is setting

And I must face the night

'Cuz now I know the darkness that you embrace

Everything that ever happened

Doesn't matter anymore

Doesn't matter where you're going

It just matters who you are

No one told you but you like that disconnect

Not knowing what comes next

Or what could have been

So we'll raise this glass

We won't talk about the why

We don't have to say goodbye

We'll just say until the next time
