Numbness

When the silence seeps in

and numbness is the only thing i feel within

I think of all the times when i had tried to speak,

of the times when you had burdened me with promises to keep

and now that the time is gone

and you cant rewind or run

and as we face each other

you realized what you have lost forever

no matter how hard you try

the tears in my eyes have run dry

all your efforts will go to vain

as I'm too numb now to feel your pain

i wished you had realized in time

had not let us play on the line

and now as i say good bye

you try to hold on and catch my eye

but i close my eyes to catch the silence i feel

and all you are left with is the picture reel
