The Act of Being Silent

The act of being silent doesn't mean there's nothing said
Here we are in this new apartment, speaking unspoken language
It doesn't feel like home yet and something says it never will
It's hard to sleep when between you
creeps foreshadowing of years to come between us

Moving in with you is not moving
Moving in with you is moving on

I unpacked all of the boxes like it couldn't be reversed
I cleaned the house and waited to across the universe
You cried as you closed the suitcase, for your temporary leave
The last time that I saw you is forever burned into my memory

I never wanted to move, but i did it for you

When you came home that monday
I was gone and took the bed
Oh, that little stupid empty apartment
Truly symbolized the end
I didn't want things to get ugly
Which is why we didn't speak
It's impressive how only a handful of words
Can destroy what was once a beautiful thing
