Connect The Dots

(album: Happy People - 2021)

Don't look at me
For it only makes hard
Harder to connect the dots
Where I thought I had them drawn

And I still love you
But I need to see this through
Need to go out on my own
Need to spend more time at home

But every time I see your face
I can't seem to say no
And all my friends are telling me
I need to let it go

The weeks go by
It looks like you're doing alright
Although I know it's a bandage
I can't avoid all this damage

And it still hurts
To see you crying on the curb
Trying to prove to me our worth
Saying let's just make this work

But every time I see your face
I can't seem to say no
And all my friends are telling me
I need to let it go

All the bits of dust
That have collected on the lens of us
Seem to turn to rust
Now that I'm filled with pain and raw disgust

And maybe if I'm on my own
I won't have to reap what you've sewn

But every time I see your face
I can't seem to say no
And all my friends are telling me
I need to let it go
