You think I can't tell
But I can
I felt that vibe change
I saw your eyes start to tear up
And your first clench
Noticed the way you went rigid
And ducked your head
At the mention of PTSD
From a professor that had never seen the likes of war
Of course neither had I
So how could I possible help you
I settle for passing you a note
"Are you okay?"
And your deceitful reply
"Ya"
