Collateral Damage

(album: I May Be An Actress, But I Can't Fake How I Feel - 2023)

(Oh oh)
(Oh oh)

I played with your nieces till I was out of breath
Debated with your brother about politics
I laughed with your parents about all of it
I loved every minute

I jumped with your nephews on their trampoline
Cleaned up with your sister at that one party
I drank with your brother in two cities
I loved every minute

I'm pretty far from fine
Got just one thing on my mind

Do they ask about me
Do they ask about me
I shouldn't wonder
But I do

Do they think about me
Do they wanna doubt me
Do they know
I loved them too

The battles are all done
We both lost, no one won (oh)
Honestly, it's so hard to manage

I'm not thinking
Of my wounds
Only the
Collateral Damage

I wanted to send presents on their birthday
Overthought the message, would they do the same
Oh we're not at war, but we're still in pain
I hate every minute

I'm pretty far from fine
Got just one thing on my mind

Do they ask about me
Do they ask about me
I shouldn't wonder
But I do

Do they think about me
Do they wanna doubt me
Do they know
I loved them too

The battles are all done
We both lost, no one won
Honestly, it's so hard to manage

I'm not thinking
Of my wounds
Only the
Collateral Damage

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh

Your friends became my own
Your family felt like home
Your friends became my own
Now look at me, I'm all alone

Do they ask about me
Do they ask about me
Do they know
I love them too
