"Quiet Voices" lyrics

"Quiet Voices"

Cold exit
How to know to begin
I felt you were always at an impasse
It's not that you had some sort of insight
It's just the passage of time and patience

Long-distance
Where to know to begin
The weight that we feel is not the impact
I had no idea we could be that
To find you're only a sheep in a wolf pack

Bitter flowers bloom
You and I what we've been through
You didn't ask nor did I
Broken hearts us two

Some voices
They don't know what it is
To have an idea but no attention
A maze that we're building from the inside
A rush to flee from it
Where's an exit

Some voices
I don't hear what they think
The more that we feel the less they can act
We waited until we hear a feedback
I need to know that you want what you have

Bitter flowers bloom
You and I what we've been through
You didn't ask nor did I
Broken hearts us two
