Your silence sits
So heavy in my chest, my darling
Last time we talked
I never knew I needed something

The sky is dark
I know my words are hurting you
The truth I told
Its making my wrists bleed so blue
But your miles away, your breaking up and I need more

This heart sinks in my chest
Cause you’re the one who knows me best
Its time, this time, I’ve cut us lose


Apologies
Are nothing but just words to you
A fragile bird, my breath
Escapes this caged house too
And I can tell you’ve had enough, I tossed us out

It takes an hour
But in the end you come around
This lonely hour
I spoke and burned the whole place down
I tried my hand at songwriting, and this is what came out of it. hope you enjoy!
