You don’t want to talk,
So quietly in the snow we walk
I have so much to say
But you’re just going to look away

You don’t want to talk
We reach a snowy crosswalk
That’s okay I say
But I can feel you pulling away

You don’t want to talk
The words feel stuck in my throat
We live in a democracy do I even get a vote?
The silence you’ve created
I warn you darling is gonna end up ill fated
You’ll wish we never dated.

You don’t want to talk
I’m mad you just sit there
Your miserable silence filling my air

I don’t mind shouting, **** it even fighting
But I assure you I will not survive in this silence
Tell me what’s wrong, walk me through the grey thoughts I see across your stupid face
Because I’m scared of this quiet place

You don’t want to talk
Unfinished thoughts and sad words in a tight lock
And I say that’s okay
But one day I’ll just walk away.
