"silence, silence was the last word we spoke

it filled the air heavy with forevers

and the failing smells of yesterday

'this wasn't my intention...' is now a haunting

the ghost of whispering thoughts

i've bled these nights dry with tears

so here's to sleepless cold and dreams of insecurity

and like before i'm left with silence and the sound of a heart breaking

its pieces crumble to the floor

promise falls quiet between stillness and silence

i hear your voice say, 'my child, i will pick up the pieces'

promise falls quiet between stillness and silence"
