[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

It hurts to turn the radio on

My stamina's gone, my spirit is weak

Because every time I start to move on

Keep hearing that song, I'm brought to my knees

To permanently see in reverse

Take the remorse out of defeat

Because everything that's under my skin

Where I end and begin still belongs to me


[Verse 2]

I'm fine to sit and stare at the door

Can't run anymore, too weary to stand

Abandon the effect with the cause

My life is on pause, it's out of my hands

To perfectly perform in reverse

There's no way to rehearse, there's nothing to plan

Because everything that's under my skin

Where I end and begin, that's who I am


[Chorus]

Oh, only silence can restore

The sense of place I had before

Oh, only silence can repair

My sense of self I lost somewhere

Oh oh, oh, only silence can restore

The sense of place I had before

Oh, only silence can repair

My sense of self I lost somewhere


[Bridge]

Because the last time I let myself feel this way

It was a long, long time ago

And now we get so scared, and we get so scared

To be nowhere left alone

Because the last time you let yourself feel this way

It was a long, long time ago

And now we get so scared, and we get so scared

To be nowhere left alone


[Outro]

Because it's now or never now

It's now or never now, now, now

Because it's now or never now

It's now or never now, now, now

Because it's now or never now

It's now or never now, now, now

Because it's now or never now

It's now or never now, now, now, now, now, now, now
