Words I wanna say but never dare
Suffocated airwaves we both share
Helpless echoes bounce inside my head
Leaving thoughts unsaid and misread
Your eyes tell tales my ears can't hear
Communication shot down by fear
Silence stretching vast like empty skies
Emptiness concealed in whispered lies
We speak in riddles never clear
Lost in translation never near
Empty echoes fill the room
Drowning in this silent gloom
Moments pass like ghosts we never caught
Meaning fades in battles we both fought
Time slips through our fingers like sand
A hollow feeling we can't understand
You reach out but I'm too far to see
Two souls adrift on a lonely sea
Fumbling words that burst and break
In this quiet all we do is ache
