Lyrics

VERSE 1
Let me explain myself again
I'm not coming back, not coming back to you
I tried in vain to avoid having to cause you pain
I said it gently once, but now I'm saying it a little bit louder
Guess you don't want to make this easy on yourself - or on me
So I'm saying this a little bit louder
Told you then, I'll tell you now exactly what I need

CHORUS
I need SILENCE AND DISTANCE,
To make you believe I meant when I said that
We were over, that I was moving on
Did you think SILENCE AND DISTANCE
Would help me to find compassion and I'd slowly
Learn to forgive you for all that shit I put up with for far too long
Well you were wrong

VERSE 2
Still mad as hell, I wish that I could wish you well
Someday maybe, maybe someday but not now
Time just won't erase the memory of what took place
I still ain't let this go, so I'll say it a little bit louder
I'm better off without you and I'm finding out who I am
I hold my head up a little bit prouder
Can't find one good reason why I'd need to see you again

BRIDGE
See I'm further away from suffering through sleepless nights
Further away from pretending I'm not unhappy
Further away from tip toeing around your emotional roller coaster
Still I can't get closer to closure

CHORUS
