Bury the Problems
I open my mouth to talk
To tell you that something is wrong
I can't make the words come out
I'll probably never sing you this song
I'll wait 'til I'm feeling better
Wait for your dark mood to fade away
I'll make a joke that puts a smile on your face
And we'll keep pretending
We're okay, everything's fine
We just need to take a little time
We'll fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
Bury the problems
I open my mouth to speak
Some sweet words that might bridge the divide
The sentiment comes out a tangled mess
I can see the hurt in your eyes
I know what you think
It isn't what I mean to say
I don't know how to set it straight
So we keep pretending
We're okay, everything's fine
We just need to take a little time
We'll fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
We're not okay, everything is far from fine
But we've got the rest of our lives
To fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
What's the use in talking anyway?
Just to say the same things over and over and nothing ever changes
We'll learn to sit in silence, enjoy the peace and quiet
Makes it so much easier to pretend
We're okay, everything's fine
We just need to take a little time
We'll fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
We're not okay, everything is far from fine
But we've got the rest of our lives
To fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
Bury the problems
I open my mouth and say I love you
It's all that should matter anyway
To tell you that something is wrong
I can't make the words come out
I'll probably never sing you this song
I'll wait 'til I'm feeling better
Wait for your dark mood to fade away
I'll make a joke that puts a smile on your face
And we'll keep pretending
We're okay, everything's fine
We just need to take a little time
We'll fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
Bury the problems
I open my mouth to speak
Some sweet words that might bridge the divide
The sentiment comes out a tangled mess
I can see the hurt in your eyes
I know what you think
It isn't what I mean to say
I don't know how to set it straight
So we keep pretending
We're okay, everything's fine
We just need to take a little time
We'll fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
We're not okay, everything is far from fine
But we've got the rest of our lives
To fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
What's the use in talking anyway?
Just to say the same things over and over and nothing ever changes
We'll learn to sit in silence, enjoy the peace and quiet
Makes it so much easier to pretend
We're okay, everything's fine
We just need to take a little time
We'll fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
We're not okay, everything is far from fine
But we've got the rest of our lives
To fill the emptiness with silence
And bury the problems
Bury the problems
I open my mouth and say I love you
It's all that should matter anyway
