Accidental Kindness

02:51

I still remember the first time you smiled at me
it didn’t even last a second

That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
I still remember the first time you smiled at me
Now I wear it like a bruise that learned to speak

You weren’t looking at me on purpose
The light just caught the corner of your mouth
I froze the whole world on that frame
And I’ve been living in it ever since
One cheap little curve of the lips
And I built a whole collapsing house

That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
I still remember the first time you smiled at me
Now I wear it like a bruise that learned to speak

Cute right?
One second of accidental kindness
And I turned it into scripture
I recite it when the room gets too quiet
I recite it when I start to hate my own face

That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
I still remember the first time you smiled at me
Now I wear it like a bruise that learned to speak

If I forget the exact tilt
If I lose the exact second
Then what was I even holding
tell me what I was holding

That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
That smile hit like a secret I wasn’t meant to keep
I still remember the first time you smiled at me
don’t take it back
don’t you dare take it back
