Deafening Silence

It's the sound of your silence
I wish I hadn't heard
You've left this city I take it
That you've never loved
All I see are your pictures
That are 200 weeks old
There is nothing that will make us
Feel this story needs to be told

You say you want to see me
But just wanting won't be enough
Now I can't keep it bottled up
Waited too for a sign from the above
Cause your deafening silence
Has wide implications
Your deafening silence
Changed all my decisions
Your deafening silence
Has shaken my patience
Will I feel love again
Or will I see her in you instead

Everytime you're on my mind
I only look at your smile
It cuts through all the hurt and
There's nothing I can hide behind
We're living different lives
And this is never too easy
But I just want to lie beside you
Watching TV

We used to meet for book exchange
And talk about our lives, like old friends
Now I can't keep it bottled up
Waited too long for a sign from the above
Cause your deafening silence
Has wide implications
Your deafening silence
Changed all my decisions
Your deafening silence
Has shaken my patience
Will I feel love again
Or will I see her in you instead

You call me with what my mum calls me with
Like a plaster for the cut from the first aid kit
But what comes in between
Is it the walls that you draw,
Or the songs that I sing?

Cause your deafening silence
Has wide implications
Your deafening silence
Changed all my decisions
Your deafening silence
Has shaken my patience
Will I feel love again
Or will I see her in you instead
