Analysis of Evelyn



I saw you found someone to place a band aid over your heart
I wish it didn’t hurt as much because you weren’t even mine from the start
but from the moment I glanced at you I knew you would leave a special mark
I like to pretend you could’ve liked me too
even though we are the complete opposite and we barely talked
I hope he makes you happy
I hope he does his best to give you everything you want
nothing is a story than a story of unrequited feelings
