I look your eyes, the eyes I used to know. They are shallow and darker now, these are the eyes of a stranger. They used to glisten whenever you glanced my way, but now they are desperately trying to find something else to focus on. The silence in the room is suffocating, the words I want to say never slip from my tongue.  But why would I say the first words? Did I even do anything wrong? I guess i’ll never know, silence is silence afterall.

Your heart beats so quickly, so much faster than mine

When we lay here its like we’re frozen in time

Our skin is touching and I’m finally warm

Don’t let go keep me safe from the storm

I don’t want to leave, I want the movie to last

I’ve never felt so comfortable with someone in the past

It’s hard to explain, how I feel at this time

All I know is I can’t get you off my mind

It scares me to think that you might feel different

It scares me to think that it was just a game to you

So tell me your feelings and tell me them soon

Open your mind so our song can be tuned

Whatever they are I can handle them

Even if it brings what I thought we had to an end

Trapped in your mind games, that I am

I see them from the beginning but I still can’t win

My heart tells me one thing and so does my brain

Trying to escape you without going insane

Why is this such a struggle?

It should have ended from the start

But some how you found a way back in my heart

You have already knocked down the walls that no one has touched

Why in the world do I need you so much?

I know I’m not in love, I would say I’m addicted

But all that addiction has done is leave me afflicted

I need you gone, I need you out, I need healing without a doubt

So leave me here wounded, leave me here battered and bruised

I need to teach myself to get used to not having you

Before I say a word

I will calm my heart so I am at peace.

Before I say a word

I will think before I speak.

Before I say a word

I will say it with love and not hate.

Before I say a word

I will stop and appreciate

Before I say a word

I will look you in the eye

Before I say a word

I will make sure it’s not a lie

Before I say a word 

I will mean it from the heart

Before I say a word

Before I say a word
