Unspoken

Freeze-frames of pedastrians on skyscraper walls
Cars and streetlights, voices fall
A blur of smoke as the world rushes by
Another day has come and gone

You look at me with accusing eyes
Put me on charge for my silent lies
The words you needed to hear the most
I withheld, oh of only I had known

If you knew the path you were on
If you had seen what was coming when life is gone
If only I had told you so
Whispered His love before you had to go

There was the house of summer memories
Springtime cheer, joy, laughter, melodies
Us skipping waves, you called me friend
I didn't think it'd lead to this end

You look at me with accusing eyes
Put me on charge for my silent lies
The words you needed to hear the most
At the tip of my tongue, but then I froze

Bring me back to those innocent times
Bring me back before the final chime
Let me say those words you need to hear
Perhaps this time I'll overcome my fears


Didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it to sound, but it'll have to do for now.
