Pent up frustration
Keeping me silent, away
Just need time
To get my heart straight
Don't wanna go off
Don't wanna explode
You're too important to me
Babe, I want you to know
I'm silent because I'm afraid

I loved you yesterday
And I'll love you tomorrow
Just give me time to not say the things I need
Give me time to work out what's inside me
And trust, have faith that I loved you today
Even through all the pain

Now we're at distance
Just keeping silent, away
I guess I've picked the wrong day
To see something
That hurts me whole
You're so important to me
Babe I want you to know
I'm silent because I'm afraid

That you'll confirm my fears
Or just dismiss my tears
I want to hold you but I'm too full of pain
I want to hold you but want you to go away
....but, babe, don't you ever go away...

I loved you yesterday
And I'll love you tomorrow
Just give me time to not say the things I need
Give me time to work out what's inside me
And trust, have faith that I loved you today
Even through all the pain

My silent attitude
Rubbing off on you
You pay it back
We're on attack
Can we get it back
Tell me it was there
Tell me that you care
So I don't have to deal
With a pain I can't bear
Silently separated
No argument that we debated
Baby it's driving me crazy

Don't confirm my fears
Don't dismiss my tears
Don't confirm my fears
Don't dismiss me...
