[Verse 1]
Something's livin' here beside us
Hoverin' around this place
Something's breathin' up the air
Something's fillin' up the empty space
It's the honesty hidin'
In the words we never say
Standin' in the dark cryin'
Trying not to fade away

[Chorus]
I know right now
It's too hard to say these things out loud
But if we don't break it down
It's the silence that will drown us out
Through the noise
It's been getting hard to hear your voice
It's such a lonely sound
Gotta find a way to turn it down
It's the silence that will drown us out

[Post-Chorus]
Drown us out

[Verse 2]
Every day is like a distant friend
And the night is like an enemy
Am I the stranger in this bed
Or is the stranger lyin' next to me?
I've been givin' just enough
Havin' promised you the best of me
Just a shadow of our love
That is not what we need
[Chorus]
I know right now
It's too hard to say these things out loud
But if we don't break it down
It's the silence that will drown us out
Through the noise
It's been getting hard to hear your voice
It's such a lonely sound
Gotta find a way to turn it down
It's the silence that will drown us out

[Bridge]
I can feel the water risin' now
What you're holdin' onto, let it out
Even if the sky comes fallin' down
Fallin' down, fallin' down
I can feel the water risin' now
What you're holdin' onto, let it out
Even if the sky comes fallin' down
Fallin' down, fallin' down

[Outro]
I know right now
It's too hard to say these things out loud
But if we don't break it down
It's the silence that will drown us out
