With a nod you couldn't see and an answer you don't feel

It was the easy way out

Saying yes to your question

Knowing there'd be no follow through on your part

All this will ever be is words you find late at night

When all I ever wanted from you was something visible in the light 

There's no place for that fairy tale anymore

You keep retelling it though, for reasons I can only interpret as self indulgent

And the days are getting too short for me to believe anymore
