Make sure nobody sees you leave
Hood over your head, keep your eyes down
Tell your friends you're out for a run
You'll be flushed when you return
Take the road less traveled by
Tell yourself you can always stop
What started as something safe
Ends with leaving before you're caught

And that's the thing about people you can't love
From judgments from family to judgments above
You're born not thinking it's too wrong
But something inside you slowly dies
A million little times

Leave the perfume on the shelf
That you picked out just for her
So nobody is suspicious
And you leave things as they were
Take the words for what they are
The last hope you can revive
When you say that you're just friends
And you leave as you arrived


And that's the thing about the secret flings
As you keep your distance the memory stings
You show your truth one single time
But then you have to smile and lie
A million little times


And you wanna scream
Why can't you just call me baby
Why isn't the princess allowed to save me?
You showed me colors you know I can't see with anyone else
I'm not your best friend, I'm not your savior
Why is a pure love seen as misbehavior?
You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else

And you know damn well
For you, I would ruin myself
A million little times
