Mirage

Pictures of us covering my walls
But you don't know me
You decline my late night phone calls
And you never say sorry
Your scent left to linger in my apartment
But you're just a stranger
We found ourselves here by accident
Now second nature

Sometimes we don't talk for days
Plus you always stay out late
And I don't really want to wait up
No love to reciprocate
Relationship to complicate
The only thing we have in common is

Indifference, and building beautiful lies
This love is convenient, we never put in time
Call it what you want, maybe self-sabotage
We'll just spend another day here, in our perfect mirage

Loving you used to feel so exciting
But we left it alone
Time with you used to pass just like lightning
But now it goes so slow

We go out together, leave alone
Never share the taxi home
All our friends think we're so in love
Hold my hand but just for show
Never let your mother know there's
Nothing underneath our surface

But indifference, and building beautiful lies
This love is convenient, we never put in time
Call it what you want, but even with all the flaws
We'll just spend another day here, in our perfect mirage
