Understand What I Didn't Say

Understand What I Didn't Say 🎧 Cold wind blowing through December streets Tires leaving marks where the asphalt meets I’m driving down this downhill road alone Trying to find a place to call my own Tear off the pages, burn the yesterday If the light turns yellow, I won't stay …. It’s not about the words I say out loud It’s what I hide inside the crowd (Hmm, hmmm...) (Hmm, hmmm...) Listen close... (Hmm, hmmm...) Don't save me now, just watch my back Stay on my side, keep me on track …… Understand what I didn't say Listen to the silence in the way I look away Don't look at my today, protect my tomorrow Beyond all the noise, beyond all the sorrow Understand what I didn't say Hold my future close, hold it in your hand …… A heart like caramel, sweeter as it burns Night calls my name, but the wheel still turns They all make mistakes, but I pay the price Making hard choices, frozen like ice Say what you mean or leave it on the road I’m tired of carrying this heavy load (Hmm, hmmm...) (Hmm, hmmm...) In the dark... (Hmm, hmmm...) ……. Understand what I didn't say Listen to the silence in the way I look away Don't look at my today, protect my tomorrow Beyond all the noise, beyond all the sorrow Understand what I didn't say Hold my future close, hold it in your hand ……. No looking back now, no turning around My quietest thoughts are the loudest sound… Don't just hear the words I've said, Understand the things I left unsaid. Understand what I didn't say. (Hmm, hmmm...) (Hmm, hmmm...)
