How would I know?

Walking by, I see your eyes avoiding mine
I feel your hurt so deep inside, it clogs my mind
I feel your pain that burns my heart as you say “hey”

What could be that turned your life?
Who could dare to hurt those eyes?
Was it me not being there before the fact?
Did I fail to appear with you and make it well?
Was I too late or never there to meet our fate?

I look at me and seek to live,
I look for you to ensure the life I haven’t seen

I didn’t know I let her go
I took the plane but sit not there
I walked by you but felt no mood
You let me go without a pick
You said “no thanks” I didn’t click

Have I in fact ignore your name to play the game?

My mind evolves around my soul
There’s no effect to feed the head that often wonders…
How would I know?
What If I missed happiness?
