It's the smallest things

That have a tendency to hurt for the longest time

It's like you found a way inside



But this time I'm not going to follow you down

I'll fall in love with the sound

(I'm not going to follow you down)

So push me back and I'll stay the same

(I'm not going to follow you down)

And fall in love with the sound of silence



I'm armed but the gun is not loaded

I guess I could find my way out of this

But it's like you found a way inside

And I hate that I suspect you're right



But this time I'm not going to follow you down

I'll fall in love with the sound

(I'm not going to follow you down)

So push me back and I'll stay the same

(I'm not going to follow you down)

And fall in love with the sound of silence



Silence is golden

but golden teeth are so much sharper

It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off

It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off

It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off

It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off



Even though you're right

Your words lie

Even though you're right

Your words lie



But this time I'm not going to follow you down

I'll fall in love with the sound

(I'm not going to follow you down)

So push me back and I'll stay the same

(I'm not going to follow you down)

And fall in love with the sound of silence
