(It's not the words that you say, it's the silence that's killing me

So I close my eyes... still, I see you in everything

I wish that everyone knew what we have been through

So I close my eyes and letting go of the love for you)

Are you even really listening to the words that I say, or do you just pretend?

Because I know that everything dies in the end

The passage of time — it all fucking bends

The walls arе closing in

It's either sink or swim

It's not the еnd of the fucking world

But to watch you leave was the end of me

I feel the need to make it crystal clear: I never meant to let you go

But you told me so

It's fucking criminal

It's fucking criminal

It's not the words that you say, it's the silence that's killing me

So I close my eyes... still, I see you in everything

I wish that everyone knew what we have been through

So when I close my eyes and letting go of the love for you

Now the silence speaks louder than words

The panic it gives — it all will return

I am so sick of this

We will never bloom

We're strangers in a room

I never thought that I would find a reason why

To find myself just disappear

I never made believe that the death of me

Would ever be so clear

The walls are closing in

It's either sink or swim

It's either stop or begin

So make your move

It's not the words that you say, it's the silence that's killing me

So I close my eyes... still, I see you in everything

I wish that everyone knew what we have been through

So I close my eyes and letting go of the love for you

You talk and you talk about the things

We never seemed to talk about

My tongue is made of knots

Because you always leave me speechless

Maybe it's me being silent

Or maybe it's you not listening

But it's not letting go when there's nothing left to hold

So don't hold on to the memories of our yesterday

Or the illusion that our love would stay

'Cause nothing holds when you're parting ways like this

The memories of our yesterday

Is the illusion that our love would stay

And nothing holds when you're parting ways like this
