I DON’T KNOW HOW MANY SECONDS
HAVE PASSED SINCE ONE OF US SPOKE
IT’S HARD TO TELL BECAUSE
MY MIND’S RACING SO FAST
I’M IN ROOM WITH NO WINDOWS
CAN YOU SPARE ME SOME LIGHT
OR ARE YOU JUST WAITING FOR A BETTER TIME
ARE YOU GOING TO SPEAK
I CAN HEAR YOU BREATH
BUT THERE’S NOTHING COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH
CAN’T YOU PUT IT IN WORDS
OR WILL THIS JUST PASS
TO BE LOST AND NEVER HEARD
WHY DON’T YOU SAY IT
THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING
I CAN TAKE IT
NOTHING’S WORSE THAN NOT KNOWING
NO MATTER WHAT IT IS
IT CAN’T BE AS BAD AS THIS
WHY DON’T YOU SAY IT
INSTEAD OF HOLDING YOUR HEAD DOWN
STARING AT THE FLOOR
HOPING I’LL JUST LET IT GO AND WON’T ASK YOU ANYMORE
THERE’S NO BETTER TIME THAN NOW
TO GET THINGS OUT SO WE CAN MOVE ON
CAUSE WHEN A CHANCE IS MISSED
IT ALWAYS LOOKS BETTER WHEN IT’S GONE
WHY DON’T YOU SAY IT
THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING
I CAN TAKE IT
NOTHING’S WORSE THAN NOT KNOWING
NO MATTER WHAT IT IS
IT CAN’T BE AS BAD AS THIS
WHY DON’T YOU SAY IT
I CAN’T READ YOUR MIND
YOU HAVE TO TELL ME WHAT IT IS YOU’RE THINKIN’
IS IT THAT HARD HONEY TO LET ME IN
NO MATTER WHAT IT IS
IT CAN’T BE AS BAD AS THIS
WHY DON’T YOU SAY IT
WHY DON’T YOU SAY IT
HAVE PASSED SINCE ONE OF US SPOKE
IT’S HARD TO TELL BECAUSE
MY MIND’S RACING SO FAST
I’M IN ROOM WITH NO WINDOWS
CAN YOU SPARE ME SOME LIGHT
OR ARE YOU JUST WAITING FOR A BETTER TIME
