Please forgive the silence of my heart,
as it lies to you and pretends that I'm okay...
When the lights in my eyes went out,
you came into the storm...
I drive away anyone
who is brave enough to hold me tight...
I no longer play that song
that used to make me feel your love...
He got in the car and drove me away
in the direction of the devil's house...
The more I think about it,
the more I can't get you out of my head...
There was a man with a camera
coming home with us tonight...
The car broke down miles from home,
miles from nowhere...
Sipping vodka,
I pour myself another drink...
The children echo in silence,
tears dripping without permission...
It feels like I am always trying
to love you from afar...
I wish I could answer all of your questions,
one at a time, to help you understand me...
