Lyrics

Something's livin' here beside us, hoverin' around this place
Something's breathin' up the air, something's fillin' up the empty space
It's the honesty hidin'
In the words we never say
Standin' in the dark cryin'
Trying not to fade away
I know right now it's too hard to say these things out loud
But if we don't break it down, it's the silence that will drown us out
Through the noise it's been gettin' hard to hear your voice
It's such a lonely sound, gotta find a way to turn it down
It's the silence that will drown us out
Drown us out
The day is like a distant friend and the night is like an enemy
Am I the stranger in this bed, or is the stranger lyin' next to me?
I've been givin' just enough
Havin' promised you the best of me
Just a shadow of our love
That is not what we need
I know right now it's too hard to say these things out loud
But if we don't break it down, it's the silence that will drown us out
Through the noise, it's been getting hard to hear your voice
It's such a lonely sound, gotta find a way to turn it down
It's the silence that will drown us out
I can feel the water risin' now
What you're holdin' onto, let it out
Even if the sky comes fallin' down
Fallin' down, fallin' down
I can feel the water risin' now
What you're holdin' back, just let it out
Even if the sky comes fallin' down
Fallin' down, fallin' down
I know right now it's too hard to say these things out loud
But if we don't break it down, it's the silence that will drown us out
