What I Didn't Say

And I hold my breath so you don't hear me say
Secrets stored in the silence of my sin

So I let you go and I watch you leave
Maybe we can never be as good as we were
It's not what I said that's keeping me away
But the words are only in my head
And I hate myself for what I didn't do

All I have left is a permanent stain
Shouldn't known battered now
When you walk away
Maybe I was never as smart as I thought
It's not what I said, it's what I didn't say
And I hate the way I'm wearing all these lies
I see myself reflected in your eyes
You walk away
When you walk away

It's not what I said that's keeping me away
Maybe you just didn't need me enough
Is she everything you wanted her to be?
Like this, like this
It's not what I said, it's what I didn't say
But the words are only in my head
It's what I didn't say, what I didn't say
Maybe we're too clever to be falling in love
And I'm the one who loses in the end
So it's one more night I cover up with you

The only part of you I get to keep forever
To prove I'd live this pain
I bet she never breaks your heart like me

But the words are only in my head
So I let you go and I watch you leave
And I hold my breath so you don't hear me say
And I hold my breath so you don't hear me say

So I let you go and I watch you leave
