Silent Moments


Is it over

Is this it

For you and me

Can I not see

What's beneath

The anger

The mask

You wear

So well

How did we fall

So far

How did my heart

Beat so strong

So sure

Suddenly break

Become so insecure

 

We had it all

Do we still have it all

Tell me

Feeling small

Smaller with every second

That ticks by

And the clock looms

It won't stop

For anyone

Just keeps passing us by

We sleep in seperate rooms

And I cry

Face buried in my hands

I can't do it

Don't understand

How to stay here

With you in the other room

Need you

 

I need you

Even though

You feel a thousand miles away

Tonight

I can't feel you

But I want to

I want the distance

To go away

Erase

This space

I'm drowning in it

Miss your skin

Against mine

Can we undo

Rewind

Just please come here

Find me in this big bed

All alone

Wrap around me

Before I turn to stone

Because only you

Can make

Or break me

In these silent moments
