Don't reflect disrespect

I can't tell you how many times that I looked away just because of you And I can't tell you how many times I wanted to say, I wanted to tell you I could have said this and that but I did not because I knew this and that I could not say to you what I needed to say to you I could have said anything but I kept it to myself, I could have done anything but I reposed myself just for you, for you, just for you, for you Cause sometimes we have to restrain our emotions to preserve our lives and ourselves And sometimes we have to preserve our emotions just to endure until we're sure it's safe to speak and say what you feel It's safe to speak and say what you feel I could have said many times to you that you were out of line in the things that you do I don't feel it's my place to tell you what you should do So you know, I said nothing to you, I let it go I was fed up with you but I said no, no, let it go She should know how it goes I'm sure she does I'm sure she does But that's okay if I never say how I feel this day It's always just a better way to have a better day It's a better way to have a better day I could not say anything, I could not say anything I watched how my heart would swing back and forth like a pendulum swings Oh no, oh no I couldn't say anything, say anything
