Silence Between the Words
[Verse 1]
Was I not there when the dam began to break?
There to help you escape?
And was I not there when the earth began to shake?
There just to keep you safe?
Was I not there when I told I needed you
And you told me we're through?
And was I not there when you needed someone new
To hand yourself over to?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Two of a hearts now oceans apart
Maybe we'll heal but carry the scars
It isn't easy, it's something we must do
[Chorus]
The meaning is found in the silence between the words
No love and no lust, let's do what we must though it hurts
Gone is the face of beauty I found in you
Gone is the grace and gone are the days we knew
[Verse 2]
Now here we stand, there is nothing left to burn
And I'm out of cheeks to turn
I have no more strength left to fight another day
Have nothing left to say
I hope you've found a girl who will stay until the end
I hope you have found a friend
But I still can't escape this feeling that I failed
Though I know that we can't be saved
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I hope that she gives you all that you need
And if I'm telling the truth I sometimes wish she was me
But it is over, there's nothing we can do
[Chorus]
The meaning is found in the silence between the words
No love and no lust, let's do what we must though it hurts
Gone is the face of beauty I found in you
Gone is the grace and gone are the days we knew
[Bridge]
I know it will take some time
Before we both will be fine
And though we go our separate ways
The love is gone, the memory stays
[Chorus]
The meaning is found in the silence between the words
No love and no lust, let's do what we must though it hurts
Gone is the face of beauty I found in you
Gone is the grace and gone are the days we knew
[Outro]
The meaning is found in the silence between the words
Silence between the words
