Silence (pretending's So Comfortable) Lyrics - Never Happy, Ever After - As It Is

Four walls and a door 

We used to call 

The rest of our lives but not enough time 

Till we're both alone 

I try to steady my hands 

You hurt to know why 

I open my mouth and just trip over sounds 

But my eyes speak goodbye 

The silence tells us all we need to know 

I breathe nervous and slow 

Well your desperate for air 

My eyes sink to the floor 

Yours go bounce down the stair 

In my tears you know I meant all I said 

As every elegant word I said sinks in again 

The silence tells us all we need to know (need to know) 

Pretending's so comfortable 

But I have to go for the last time 

You challenge all that I think 

Something is what made me it 

I rephrase and repeat 

Leaving nothing unsaid 

Your hysterics aren't the last words you'd hear 

As I stand to the your moment 

Your four walls full of fear 

The silence tells us all we need to know (need to know) 

Pretending's so comfortable 

But I have to go for the last time 

We won't talk at all, we'll just wonder 

We won't talk at all, we'll just wonder 

We won't talk at all, we'll just wonder 

We won't talk at all, we won't talk at all 

We won't talk at all, we'll just wonder 

Would we still swallow glass for each other 

We won't talk at all, we'll just wonder 

Would we still swallow glass for each other 

The silence tells us all we need to know (need to know) 

Pretending's so comfortable 

But I have to go for the last time 

The silence tells us all we need to know (need to know) 

Pretending's so comfortable 

But I had to go
