With a bag of dust and time to kill
Wasted away in search of cheap thrills
As morning breaks and we're coming down
We start another day in this broken town
What we knew in the heat of the sun
And tried to keep secret from everyone
What we knew from May to September
Could never survive the cold of winter
Am I as unimportant as this silence makes me feel?
When you're all that makes me real
And all the things I want to say
Are only words that get in the way
When I just wish I was real like you
There always something here to remind me
In every picture and memory
I'm not getting to grips with moving on
Or coming to terms with the fact that you're gone
Am I as unimportant as this silence makes me feel?
When you're all that makes me real
And all the things I want to say
Are only words that get in the way
When I just wish I was real like you
Thorn in my side
The guilt I bear
Realising that no-one's there
Like an open wound
That will never heal
It makes me real
Am I as unimportant as this silence makes me feel?
When you're all that makes me real
And all the things I want to say
Are only words that get in the way
When I just wish I was real like you
