Silence Between the Words

Was I not there when the dam began to break?
There to help you escape?
And was I not there when the earth began to shake?
There just to keep you safe?

Was I not there when I told I needed you
And you told me we're through?
And was I not there when you needed someone new
To hand yourself over to?

Two of a hearts now oceans apart
Maybe we'll heal but carry the scars
It isn't easy, it's something we must do

The meaning is found in the silence between the words
No love and no lust, lets do what we must though it hurts
Gone is the face of beauty I found in you
Gone is the grace and gone are the days we knew

Now here we stand, there is nothing left to burn
And I'm out of cheeks to turn
I have no more strength left to fight another day
Have nothing left to say

I hope you've found a girl who will stay until the end
I hope you have found a friend
But I still can't escape this feeling that I failed
Though I know that we can't be saved

I hope that she gives you all that you need
And if I'm telling the truth I sometimes wish she was me
But it is over, there's nothing we can do

The meaning is found in the silence between the words
No love and no lust, lets do what we must though it hurts
Gone is the face of beauty I found in you
Gone is the grace and gone are the days we knew

I know it will take some time
Before we both will be fine
And though we go our separate ways
The love is gone, the memory stays

The meaning is found in the silence between the words
No love and no lust, lets do what we must though it hurts
Gone is the face of beauty I found in you
Gone is the grace and gone are the days we knew

The meaning is found in the silence between the words
