It’s never gonna happen
I told you a joke
I didn’t mean to tell
You grimaced at me
Then sighed and said well

It’s never gonna happen
Yes, I already know
But do you even tolerate me?
Or should I just go

Secretly mooning over you
A child to a teen
You shine your blue eyes at me
The prettiest I’ve ever seen

But I laugh off your remark
And tell you, “yeah you wish,”
Because I’m holding back agony
I’m at the start you’re at the finish

It shouldn’t hurt as much as it did
When you told me that
But I don’t know now if I’m pretty or ugly
Why would you not want me back?

Horrible terrible stains on the mirror
You’ve made me hate myself
You’re the clouds I’m the rain
I’m the dusty picture on the shelf

Could you just lie to me
And say something comforting
I don’t care of the hoax
Your silence is deafening

I’m seething but quietly
My seatbelt I fasten
Please don’t say the sentence
That “it’s never gonna happen”
