lyrics

Your silence rings inside my ears
Funny how an instant can erase what took us years
No violence, but it hit me hard
you ignored the beating of my tell-tale broken heart

If you’ve got nothing nice to say, just say anything at all.
Sticks, stones, broke bones and names don’t hurt like your silent gall
I made the bed where I now lie, won’t you come and lie with me
I’ll just wait and hold my breath, please come back so I can breathe

You made me feel untouchable, but now the word has new meaning
since you told me you were through, since you told me you were leaving
Only not so many words, not so eloquently
Did you ever have your way with them like you had your way with me

If you’ve got nothing nice to say, just say anything at all.
Sticks, stones, broke bones and names don’t hurt like your silent gall
I made the bed where I now lie, won’t you come and lie with me
I’ll just wait and hold my breath, please come back so I can breathe

Red message rung our phones just to make my fondness grow
Passive aggression stuck on you (yeah)
Stick stones and broken bones don’t hurt like your name now I’m alone
But there’s nothing I can do except wait on you

If you’ve got nothing nice to say, just say anything at all.
Sticks, stones, broke bones and names don’t hurt like your silent gall
I made the bed where I now lie, won’t you come and lie with me
I’ll just wait and hold my breath, please come back so I can breathe

never hear your laugh never hear your name,
well maybe not never just never the same.
Well maybe not never!

If you’ve got nothing nice to say, just say anything at all.
If you’ve got nothing nice to say just say anything!
