Silence Kills
i wrote that i was lucky just the other day
yet i cant express how i feel verbally
i wish there was a cure so i can say
what my heart is deeply feeling everyday
when i get the spotlight i freeze in freight
i end up hurting you and that isnt right
i whisper how im feeling cause i know you cant hear
when the time comes my words disappears
im sorry but it seems i cant change
maybe im copping out or just plain afriad
i really do trust you but i cant seem to let go
i wish i wasnt holding back so i can tell you so
i always feel dumb when you ask me how i feel
because i say nothing when thats not how i feel
my heart starts to pound like im running in a race
you repeat your question and its like im stranded out in space
im sorry that im treating you so unfair
you deserve better and me expressing how i feel
whenever you tell me that its "cool"
more and more i feel like a fool
i wish it wasnt so hard for me
because i truly want you to truly see
that i care just as strongly for you like you care for me...
