Alone I watched you walk away
The debt is just the price that I pay
Ignore the warning signs as I'm talking out of line
It feels like I'm wasting my time
You said "don't waste your tears on me"
But they hit the ground before I felt them on my cheek
My voice was weak with the words I couldn't speak
And stained with lies and deceit
I still hear your silence
Echo through the darkness
Cos lately it seems that every measure of pleasure
Was paid equally in pain
All the goodbyes
All the white lies
Lately it seems that every time that you leave
I can feel the sorrow break the disguise
(In the whites of your eyes)
Maybe I could cut out my tongue
And then I could replace it with one
That hadn't told a lie and hadn't said goodbye
A few too many times before
You said "don't waste your tears on me"
But they hit the ground before I felt them on my cheek
My voice was weak with the words I couldn't speak
And stained with lies and deceit
I still hear your silence
Echo through the darkness
Cos lately it seems that every measure of pleasure
Was paid equally in pain
All the goodbyes
All the white lies
Lately it seems that every time that you leave
I can feel the sorrow break the disguise
In the whites of your eyes
I still hear your silence
Echo through the darkness
Cos lately it seems that every measure of pleasure
Was paid equally in pain
All the goodbyes
All the white lies
Lately it seems that every time that you leave
I can feel the sorrow break the disguise
In the whites of your eyes
(In the whites of your eyes)
Echo through the darkness
(In the whites of your eyes)
Cause lately it seems that every measure of pleasure
Was paid equally in pain
(In the whites of your eyes)
All the goodbyes
(In the whites of your eyes)
All the white lies
(In the whites of your eyes)
Lately it seems that every time that you leave
I can feel the sorrow break the disguise
In the whites of your eyes
