(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 are closing in It's either sink or swim It's not the end 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
