i can hear what you’re not saying
it thunders in my ears

and all the words i’m holding in
bind novels in arrears

a look between our speechless faces
exchange the heart and gaze replaces

all that we can’t say.

there’s so much we just can’t say.

and sometimes, that’s okay.

 

‘cause i can feel what really matters
i can sense it in my spine

even silence, thick and weighted,
can’t deafen my heart’s mind

all that i should wish to tell you
whispers through my skin unto you

and you can feel it’s true.

it’s time to say what’s really true.

is there an ocean in you, too?
