when the silence falls
Red lips, pink wine
Oceans of white lies
Her cold eyes, avoid mine
My lungs ache
My voice, gone
So much to say
But it's all wrong
The words fade on my tongue
I lost my breath in the middle of her sentence
Rather pretend I don't know what it means
I bet she knows, but she'd never dare to mention
Think that it might be why I'm losing sleep
Ooh I need a minute
Before I go and destroy the evening
I know my heart won't heal 'till it speaks but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Oooh I need a minute
Before I go and cause all the damage
I know I'll be probably be fine when it ends but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
There's no way
Nobody sees
Ain't it obvious
Bet she pities me
Don't want this
Type of empathy
Can't seem to avoid confrontation any longer
There's nothing that weighs as heavy as the truth
I empty the glass, think I'm gonna need another
Don't wanna remember if I am a fool
There's never a right time for the moment of destruction
Never a sign when there's a lot to lose
Ooh I need a minute
Before I go and destroy the evening
I know my heart won't heal 'till it speaks
But I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Oooh I need a minute
Before I go and cause all the damage
I know I'll be probably be fine when it ends but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Ooh I need a minute
Before I go and destroy the evening
I know my heart won't heal 'till it speaks, but
I'm just scared for the hurt
When the silence falls
Oooh I need a minute
Before I go and cause all the damage
I know I'll be probably be fine when it ends but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Oceans of white lies
Her cold eyes, avoid mine
My lungs ache
My voice, gone
So much to say
But it's all wrong
The words fade on my tongue
I lost my breath in the middle of her sentence
Rather pretend I don't know what it means
I bet she knows, but she'd never dare to mention
Think that it might be why I'm losing sleep
Ooh I need a minute
Before I go and destroy the evening
I know my heart won't heal 'till it speaks but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Oooh I need a minute
Before I go and cause all the damage
I know I'll be probably be fine when it ends but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
There's no way
Nobody sees
Ain't it obvious
Bet she pities me
Don't want this

There's nothing that weighs as heavy as the truth

I know my heart won't heal 'till it speaks
But I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Oooh I need a minute

I know I'll be probably be fine when it ends but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
Ooh I need a minute
Before I go and destroy the evening
I know my heart won't heal 'till it speaks, but
I'm just scared for the hurt
When the silence falls
Oooh I need a minute
Before I go and cause all the damage
I know I'll be probably be fine when it ends but
I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
