[Verse 1]

I waited for you

I thought I should

Something told me not to go

A cold hand reached down

I let the noise drown it out

[Chorus]

Subtle changes

Happen slowly

I'll be silent

I always have been

Darkness floods your eyes

When you need to see

Don't waste your time on me

[Verse 2]

I hear crying from behind

The way I never did

I used to listen out to hear you calling

I still listen out but I hear nothing at all

[Chorus]

Subtle changes

Happen slowly

I'll be silent

I always have been

Darkness floods your eyes

When you need to see

Don't waste your time on...

[Bridge]

Are you feeling better now? I hope so

I've been here before

Once before, maybe twice

And I wish that I could stay and help you more

But I just don't have the time

[Chorus]

Subtle changes

Happen slowly

I'll be silent

I always have been

Darkness floods your eyes

When you need to see

Don't waste your time on me

[Outro]

Don't waste your time on me
