The words left unspoken

Often fix that heart that’s broken



Sometimes, I lack the tact,

But from this love I'm sorry if I detract.



For all the things left unsaid,

A little part of your heart was dead.

These things I left in my head

The roads that I didn’t dare tread.



A way of life, my emotions shown like a token

I've got to leave and you know I'm gonna go with barrels smokin’

Im sorry for these things I put you through

I'm sorry I never thought of what I did to you

All those nights you spent alone

All those nights I left you here

All the dreams, filled with fear

I was never there to brush away the errant tear.



Im best at the things left unspoken,

A simple gesture of my emotion

A simple exchange turns into such an explosion

A sickening burst, random motion



This means nothing to you,

Nor should it.

For all the times I wasn’t there,

For all the times It wasn’t fair

The tears cried into your hair.



This means so much to me,

I leaned on your shoulder,

The weight coming off my chest just like a boulder.

You were always there for me,

We all pay a fee,

Looks like mines due now.

Ive got a debt to pay, and all Im left to do is wonder how.



Im better at the things left unspoken,

A simple gesture

Lacks the power to fix a heart left broken.
