Silence

I'm trying to decide if you love me
Or if you're just used to my hairdryer next to the sink
I'm trying to divine if the wine on the table is for dinner
Or if I just drive you to drink

Because marriage is easy when you face the same way
But turn off the TV and there's not much to say in the silence

You only tell me you love me when someone has died
And I may not know how to answer, but darling, I tried
I've been walking in circles, been bleeding this stone
Who knew either way I'd be tired and alone in the end?

Been wondering now if you want me
Or if you just think that you're supposed to be holding my hand
Been figuring out if alright is enough
Or am I just comfortable following plans

Because loving is easy with people around
But when they go home there's that you and me sound of silence

You only ask me to stay when there's nobody else
And now I have realised, I'm only fooling myself
I've been holding my breath, been wasting my time
I'm still at the bottom, too tired to climb anymore

You only tell me you love me when someone has died
And I may not know how to answer, but darling, I tried
I've been walking in circles, been bleeding this stone
Who knew either way I'd be tired and alone in the end?
