Silent Break

First light breaks through my window
Can't sleep, can't close my eyes
Your words still echo in my head
All those sugar-coated lies
Morning sun hits the carpet
Where we sat just days ago
Trying hard to understand now
Why I let this hurt me so


Every promise that you made me
Turned to ash with morning light
Can't pretend anymore that
Everything will be alright


I'm tired of endless lies
Need the silence now
Can't hear your voice tonight
Just want the quiet somehow
All those pretty words you said
Mean nothing anymore
Time to clear my head
Walk right out that door



Candle's flame on the table
Where you swore your love was true
Now I see through every moment
Every line I thought I knew
Guess I wanted to believe it
When you said you'd never leave
Funny how the truth comes clearer
When there's nothing left to grieve


I'm tired of endless lies
Need the silence now
Can't hear your voice tonight
Just want the quiet somehow
All those pretty words you said
Mean nothing anymore
Time to clear my head
Walk right out that door


The morning brings such clarity
When all the noise fades away
Finally seeing reality
No more games left to play


I'm tired of endless lies
Need the silence now
Can't hear your voice tonight
Just want the quiet somehow
All those pretty words you said
Mean nothing anymore
Time to clear my head
Walk right out that door
