When you came into my life, I was unsafe
I had no one I could rely on
I'd pray for someone like you

The words spoken
Years denied cries
The words unspoken
Dug the hole even bigger

I never asked
You to replace anyone, but
All I wanted was your love
Your silence makes me hunger
And you feed my indifference

When you came into my life
I always played alone
I had no one to turn to
I'd pray for someone like you

The words spoken
Years denied cries
The words unspoken
Dug the hole even bigger

I never asked
You to replace anyone, but
All I wanted was your love
Your silence makes me hunger
And you feed my indifference

In a test of understanding with me
A point so heard
Reading from a manuscript
With no lines

You chose to see me hang
And you chose not to participate

The words spoken
Years denied cries
The words unspoken
Dug the hole even bigger

I never asked
You to replace anyone, but
All I wanted was your love
Your silence makes me hunger
And you feed my indifference
I never asked
You to replace anyone, but
All I wanted was your love
Your silence makes me hunger
And you feed my indifference
