Lyrics


Leave In Silence

I've told myself so many times before

But this time I think I mean it for sure

We have reached a full stop

Nothing's going to save us from the big drop


Reached our natural conclusion

Outlived the illusion

I hate being in these situations

That call for diplomatic relations

If I only knew the answer

Or I thought we had a chance

Or I could stop this

I would stop this thing

From spreading like a cancer


What can I say

I don't want to play anymore

What can I say

I'm heading for the door

I can't stand this emotional violence

Leave in silence

Leave in silence


We've been running around in circles all year

Doing this and that and getting nowhere

This will be the last time

I think I said that last time


If I only had a potion

Some magical lotion

That could stop this

I would set the wheels in motion


What can I say

I don't want to play anymore

What can I say

I'm heading for the door

I can't stand this emotional violence

Leave in silence

Leave in silence
