Sad to Say+

You’re doing that knife thing at the table. Do I need another glass of wine. Checking your reflection, you’re not able to even look me in the eye.
Conversation strained and the silences are growing, and my glass is drained, is my disappointment showing, you have nothing to say to me and I have no reply, it’s true, yes it’s true. It’s really sad to say, why you’re pushing me away. It’s sad to say why you’re pushing me away. Your face is a mirror of what I’m feeling and it is too painful now to see, are you
fascinated by the ceiling, ‘cause you’d rather look at it than me. You drink your wine and my coffee’s getting colder, and time after time it lays heavy on my shoulder, what happened to you, what happened to me, what has
become of the people we used to be. You have nothing to say to me and I have no reply, it’s true, yes it’s true. You have nothing to say to me and I have no reply , it’s true yes it’s true. Sad to say, why you’re pushing me away. It’s really sad to say why you’re pushing me away, it’s really sad to say why you’re pushing me away, sad to say yeah. (Shi 2015)
