Silence befalls the morning
Post loss of a lover
Awakens the howls of pain
Eerily familiar
Armed with that heady, sullen stare
Which I can no longer bear
You come searching for me in the night
But I'm no longer there
We'll say our goodbyes on the phone
Retreat to the safety of home
Denying all company
Let us set aside all words of hope
Until we learn to get by on our own
When we're in no need of saving
We'll just take it or leave it
