V.O.S.

Just like a gas invades a maze
Nostalgia took over my heart
And even though I have eyes, I have ears in pairs
Without you they lose meaning, sound, and color

I can't shake the habit of waiting for you at home
Resting my head against the glass
And when I fog up the window with a sigh
I draw a tic-tac-toe that I've tied again

If one day we cross paths
Don't answer, don't pay attention
To the subtitles that you know how to see beneath my smile
I'll tell you I'm getting by
I'll deny that I'm crying
I'll pretend that time healed everything

I can't do anything without realizing
It's the price of learning not to cry
And even though sometimes nothing indicates it's worth it
I refuse to turn around and make myself younger

If one day we cross paths
Don't answer, don't pay attention
To the subtitles that you know how to see beneath my smile
I'll tell you I'm getting by
I'll deny that I'm crying
I'll pretend that time healed everything

And in reality, I never forget you
You were my only path
And your smile a good reason
To be a better person
And even if they tell you
That they saw me as a princess in some story
I don't need to tell you that they are just stories
