EMPTY SILENCE
WRITTEN BY J.R HILTON
WRITTEN JULY 2016
YOU SAID YOU'D WAIT FOR ME
YOU'D BE RIGHT HERE WAITING
YOU SAID YOUR HEART WAS ONLY MINE
WERE YOU JUST BEING KIND
FILLING ME WITH EMPTY WORDS, YOU NEVER MEANT TO SAY
AND THE LETTERS I SENT YOU GOT NO REPLY
I NEVER EVEN GOT A GOODBYE
I TURNED AROUND AND YOU WERE GONE
WERE YOU BARBED WIRE DISGUISED AS LACE
I MUST OF MISREAD THAT SMILE ON YOUR FACE
AND THAT LOOK OF WANT IN YOUR EYES
MUST OF BEEN SOMETHING ELSE IN DISGUISE
WHEN I CAME BACK YOU WERE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND
I WANDERED THE EMPTY STREETS WHERE YOU LIVED
I FOUND NO CLUES I DIDN'T ALREADY HAVE
YOU COULD OF SAVED ME HEARTACHE, YOU COULD OF SAVED ME TIME
THEY SAY YOUR NUMBERS DISCONNECTED
THERE'S NO ONE THERE
JUST AN EMPTY SILENCE
THAT ONLY YOU COULD FILL
AND RIGHT NOW I'M WISHING YOU DID STILL
IT'S SOMETHING THAT I NEVER WOULD OF DONE TO YOU
WISHED YOU'D FELT THE SAME WAY TO
SO NAIVE, TO BELIEVE YOU WERE MINE
AND TIME COULD NOT BREAK THE SPELL
I COULDN'T SEE YOU WERE LOST TO ME
WE'D NEVER BE THE SAME
YOU WERE THE HUNTRESS, I WAS THE GAME
YOU SPOKE IN LANGUAGE I DIDN'T YET UNDERSTAND
NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU HAD PLANNED
IT WASN'T MEANT TO LAST BUT YOU WOULDN'T SAY
YOU LET ME BELIEVE THERE WAS MORE
