Radio Silence

Did I hurt you that bad, babe?

Did I really mess this up?

Swear, I intended to tread lightly

But still, I woke the beast in you

See, I was hopin' to save us

I pointed out the dark clouds

But you ran into the rain anyway

And now there's no way out

It's not the storm that I can't stand

It's in your reticent manner, man

I think we both know that the ball is in your court

Honey, it kills me

The radio silence

I never saw us here

In a world where our lips are sealed

It's harder to heal

When, honey, it kills me

All of this quiet

I never thought you'd

Go out of your way to stay out of mine

But I'm putting my money on time

All our stories were useless, so I'll hold my breath

Wait it out and leave you be with all your rage

And your lonely and lovelessness

It's hard to be the one to save you

Our peers talk of you only in passing

Censoring the stories of your pain (Stories of your pain)

But I know all about your bad nights

Tendency to slight at the mention of my name

I willingly take all the blame

But the ball is in your court

Honey, it kills me

The radio silence

I never saw us here

In a world where our lips are sealed

It's harder to heal

When, honey, it kills me

All of this quiet

I never thought you'd

Go out of your way to stay out of mine

But I'm putting my money on time

Put all my money on time

But with the way it all played out

Was there ever a hope in hell that you'd keep close

Sit tight and take it well, no

But it's a pipe dream at best that you might ever get your head around

How it all went down, though I live guilt-ridden

Wouldn't dare to take it all back

'Cause I'd not be where I stand, nor who I am

Or I need to be

But there will never be hurt, babe

Till the day comes when you love again

Maybe the saddest but best part

Is she'll hold you tighter than I ever did back then

Honey, it kills me (It kills me)

The radio silence (The radio silence)

I never saw us here

In a world where our lips are sealed

It's harder to heal

When, honey, it kills me (Honey, it kills me)

All of this quiet (All of this quiet)

I never thought you'd

Go out of your way to stay out of mine

But I put all my money on time

Put all my money on time
