Verse 1 The silence wakes up from under your make up A tear bleeds the armor off your face Blue is now leaving, you face behind bleeding As it dances its way past your lips And the words still remain as your eyes cringe in pain An attempt to keep your cool A tear hits you tongue as your world comes undone And everyone around you pretends that they care Chorus Breathing in has never been so hard And closing your eyes has never felt so right You were never one to make a scene But that doesn't matter tonight Verse 2 I trace the lipstick, for anyone who missed it Back to it's home smeared across you face Unanswered phone calls, well they don't solve Anything except that you You know you aren't wanted, that's not how you wanted It to be And your tears spell out, something you feel now A five letter word alone Chorus Bridge You'll take your pride, leave it behind Or at least what pieces are left And you'll move on And you'll find some self-respect In the bookstore on the isle Filled with romance novels You'll read your days away Remembering what you lost Chorus
