In Silence/Words Away Lyrics
Sometimes it's not the giving
When what's given is gone and for free
But in taking what it took from me
And I'm not living
In someone else's eyes I am lived
Recreated in expectation so once again I'm missed
And left
Far, far away
Far, far away from you
The only way out is through myself to you
With words that do no justice but what have I left to use?
Because I can't stand this silence, it speaks too loud for me
A song that fails and fails me once again denied release
And left
Words, words away
Words, words away from you
From where my heart wants to be
Far, far away
Far, far away from where my heart wants to be
Is there a beauty in promises broken?
When what's given is gone and for free
But in taking what it took from me
And I'm not living
In someone else's eyes I am lived
Recreated in expectation so once again I'm missed
And left
Far, far away
Far, far away from you
The only way out is through myself to you
With words that do no justice but what have I left to use?
Because I can't stand this silence, it speaks too loud for me
A song that fails and fails me once again denied release
And left
Words, words away
Words, words away from you
From where my heart wants to be
Far, far away
Far, far away from where my heart wants to be
Is there a beauty in promises broken?
