I answered with nods and silence

Your rage was burning up my back
The melody went off the track
My hands were shaking, tears ran down the rack
The statue in the rain had lost his speech
No words survived from sheer defeat
Another tally scratched our bridge between
In silence lied the piano scores in pieces
No confession, no regrets
One stares at the phone, one plays duet
I chewed and swallowed the secrets in my head
Across the ocean, race with time
Your tousled hair in the morning light
An answer was brewed but I caught those swollen eyes
In silence, I could've asked you twice 'are you alright'
Shots are fired, the flocks of birds flee over my head
That's when I look back
Bullets have withered the grass
If you touch my stony heart, you will understand
What makes me who I am
But I'm sorry for what I said
Did you see this coming when you hugged and waved me goodbye
Did you mean it when you said 'I'm still proud of you' though I've tried
Do you miss the little devil dancing around a pot of rice wine
Now all I do is shy away, break the chain, like a ghost in disguise
Shots are fired, the flocks of birds flee over my head
That's when I look back
Bullets have withered the grass
If you touch my stony heart, you will understand
What makes me who I am
But I'm sorry for what I said
Did you see this coming when we bickered again on the last night
(pretending we were fine)
Did you mean it when you said 'it's alright' cuz I've failed a million times
(we're good at telling lies)
Do you miss the little girl who says 'I love you' straight into your eyes
I bet you do
I miss her too
But in silence winds the unspoken love of mine
