How Heavy the Quiet That Grew Between Your Mouth and Mine

How heavy the quiet that grew between your mouth and mine
I'll bet it weighs more than anybody that I could find

We filled it with words in the hope that we could drown it out
But it was too loud, it was too loud

And how heavy the silence that grows in between our two mouths
It weighs me down more than anybody you have since found

We filled it with words in the hope that we could drown it out
But it was too loud, it was too loud

I can still here it now
In between every sound
That comes out of your mouth
As I stand in the crowd
And you know I'm proud
Of the words you've now found

I wish you would wait
Until I was not around
