Red lips, pink wipe Oceans of white lies Her cold eyes avoid mine My lungs ache, my voice gone So much to say, but it's all wrong The words fade on my tongue I lost my breath in the middle of a sentence Read it, pretend I don't know what it means And I bet she knows, but she never did mention Think that it might be why I'm losing sleep Oh, I need a minute Before I go and destroy the evening I know my heart won't heal till it speaks, but I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls Oh, I need a minute Before I go and cause all the damage I know I'll probably be fine when it ends, but I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls There's no way nobody sees Ain't it obvious? Think she pities me Don't want this type of empathy, no Can't seem to avoid confrontation any longer Nothing that weighs as heavy as the truth I empty the glass, think I'm gonna need another Don't wanna remember if I am a fool Never a right time for the moment of destruction Never a sign when there's a lot to lose Oh, I need a minute Before I go and destroy the evening I know my heart won't heal till it speaks, but I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls Oh, I need a minute Before I go and cause all the damage I know I'll probably be fine when it ends, but I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Oh, I need a minute Before I go and destroy the evening I know my heart won't heal till it speaks, but I'm just scared for the hurt when the silence falls
