Light the flame now but
Don't you let it burn out
Make the space but
Don't you lose your way round
Hold me close but
Not more than the right amount
All you want but
Just not what you could pay out
With no room left here to vent
We tip toe yet end up bent
Just leaving truth left unsaid
Doesn't mean I liked you better when you weren't around
Doesn't mean I needed silence instead of your sound
Doesn't mean I don't appreciate when you're up and you're down
Only means I needed space to be what I was when you found me
Cuz you know that I'm down
Take the long way route
Avoid the shortest of fuse
Spend the time and
Save the memory as proof
Walk alone til
You're running out of excuse
Drown with noise but
Your stare just screams at me too
With no room left here to vent
We tip toe yet end up bent
Just leaving truth left unsaid
Doesn't mean I liked you better when you weren't around
Doesn't mean I needed silence instead of your sound
Doesn't mean I don't appreciate when you're up and you're down
Only means I needed space to be what I was when you found me
Cuz you know that I'm down
With no room left here to vent
We tip toe yet end up bent
Just leaving truth left unsaid
Doesn't mean I liked you better when you weren't around
Doesn't mean I needed silence instead of your sound
Doesn't mean I don't appreciate when you're up and you're down
Only means I needed space to be what I was when you found me
Cuz you know that I'm down
