Ache

I complain, she worries
When there's nothing anyone can do
Subtly, snaps back at me
I'm not responding like we know I should

Close my eyes and try to sleep for you
I'm not giving up, though I expect you to

Though I can't smile wide with my demons here
My heart beats louder and louder and louder and louder now
I can't smile wide with my demons here
My heart beats louder and louder and louder
I can't smile wide with my demons here
My love gets stronger and stronger and stronger and stronger
