All I hear today
Is the deafening sounds of silence
The soft pounding of my heart
And the less than silent ringing in my ears

Today is a day I’ve dreaded for months
The day you and I stopped
Friendship that couldn’t last and
Love that wouldn’t work

We were the very best of friends but
Oh did we bring out the worst in each other too
I don’t know what to feel
Am I numb from the fear I’ve felt

Or is it the hole that is now there
Sometimes I think I just know what’s right
And then I realize I don’t know a damn thing
Now how do I fix this

Do I want to
What did I do this time, every time
Now as I sit in the dark
In a cold dreaded silence
