Whisper

when i left you by the side of the road
you took the map, and the way home was lost forever
i can't remember a thing on my own
except the look in your eyes when we said goodnight
and we held tight, like every second would mean a lifetime more

but you were never the same, i see it every day
going out of your way to hide the things i'm not supposed to know
and be sure i can tell, cause i've done it myself
i know what it felt like to say no, i'm never coming home

and i keep you on the tip of my tongue
i leave valentines but you just run right by
i can't find a reason you are wrong
it keeps me on the edge of the night
i need silence dear, but it's not right without your whisper in my ear
every once in a while

you were never the same, i see it every day
going out of your way to hide the things i'm not supposed to know
and be sure i can tell, cause i've done it myself
i know what it felt like to say no, i'm never coming home

but you know, i still remember the exact time of the day when the secrets of
the morning slipped away
and the things you used to think, well they made you incomplete
as they manifested themselves in a way that you never thought possible
even though i knew it all along
yeah i felt it from the start
i wanted a war but i got more
and look where it got me
