Jordan White - The Days I Didn't Speak lyrics

rate me

Another silent morning for another quiet day

Some nights I believe I've said years ago

All I'll ever need to say

And this heavy foot in exile is the time that tip toes away -

Always thought I'd have more words

More nouns, more lies, or more verbs, to say

(Chorus)

But today, no way

I swear I didn't say a word

And today, no way

I swear that I wasn't heard

But the days I didn't speak and the days I didn't eat

They were the days that turned into weeks

I was sitting out on a curb

People walking by feel me

So disturbed -

And no sound, as I stare at the ground

And it's only coming down and when it all goes down

You know just where I'll be found

No sound on the ground

(Chorus)

And all the silent times at the bars

I wish the smokey roof was open

So I could see some stars

Do you feel like a piece of paper in the wind?

Or do you sit still when you try to spin?

Cause they come at anytime....

(Chorus)

Oh these days turned into weeks

You could pull yourself out of your sweater

All the lightning like the fuse

If you only knew it's the lightning you use
