Unfair - Kate Voegele

The city sleeps, so silently
I wish I could say the same for me
But I've got this dead ended street,
To keep searching for a tunnel underneath a bitter truth
Or a bridge invisible I won't fall through

I don't know how much I can keep,
Letting you unravel me,
'Cause the more you learn, the more we share
We were worlds apart, and you see
It was so much easier to be
'cause now I know what we can't have and it's so Unfair

I never meant most of those pretty words I said,
But I wanted you to think I did
'Cause telling you all this makes no difference
No, it's useless, 'cause those who get to know our hearts the most
They always seem to be the ones we'll never hold

And I don't know how much I can keep,
Letting you unravel me,
'Cause the more you learn, the more we share
We were worlds apart, and you see
It was so much easier to be
'cause now I know what we can't have and it's so Unfair

Can't you see it's destroying me?
I can't stand the closeness.
But don't you dare go avoiding me.
It kills me and yet it keeps me going.

I don't know how much I can keep,
Letting you unravel me,
'Cause the more you learn, the more we share
We were worlds apart, and you see
It was so much easier to be
'cause now I know we can't have and it's so Unfair
