It should be me holding you
Professional pictures, by the park.
Eyes matchmade for our future
Your hands on my shoulders…
My hands around your waist…
Professional pictures, being taken.
By this same park, I wait
I’m already there, in my mind
I showed up too early
Or maybe too late.
This was supposed to be our date.
Your boyfriend can’t compare
Smile in front of him, I couldn’t care
So close to you, he’s breathing your air
In my mind, I was there.
Professional pictures being taken
You look so delightful.
So delicate, my mind shatters
Plastic heart, it doesn’t break
Your unspoken truth, I can take
You and him, really exist
I’m the one who’s fake.
In my mind, I’m too late.
~ This Park, In My Mind
