Renae Nicole - THE ART OF SILENCE Lyrics

A cold, dark February
I ask "Your place or mine?"
Undercover but our feelings vary
The memory's hazy when we intertwined
I'll keep my mouth shut
Oh 'cause I've gotta give you up
I had to learn the art of silence
In the aftermath of your quiet violence
Because nobody knows the things we've done
What we said or what we could have become
'Cause I had to learn the art of
Snow in mid November
But my room's on fire
Covered in glowing embers
Perceptive flames of my desire
I'll keep my mouth shut
Oh 'cause I've gotta give you up
I had to learn the art of silence
In the aftermath of your quiet violence
Because nobody knows the things we've done
What we said or what we could have become
'Cause I had to learn the art of
Not saying everything that I feel
Or crying in the bathroom because it wasn't real
You only call me when she doesn't have the time
I'm throwing on a smile 'cause there's nowhere I can hide
You loved me in secret that was the deal
Now my wound is opened it will never heal
And you're reaching out just to keep it alive but
I've done this about a million times before
I had to learn the art of
In the aftermath of your quiet violence
Because nobody knows the things that we've done
What we said or what we could have become
'Cause I had to learn the art of
(Silence)
(Silence)
I had to learn the art of
(Silence)
(Silence)
I had to learn the art of
