your hands were warm and dry

placed lightly on my back

we'd sit and watch the day

slide out from red to black



when it comes to you

you were always the first

when it comes to you

silence is the worst



these tumbleweeds roll by

the memories we made

and these deserted streets

feel like they'll never fade



when it comes to you

you were always the first

when it comes to you 

silence is the worst



sun is shining but I don't feel warm

I'm chilled right down to the core

I reach to touch you but my hands are shaking

you don't want me here so I'll go



standing still, tall and proud

even you now turn to gold

this statue I have built

perfect, beautiful and cold



when it comes to you

you were always the first

when it comes to you

silence is the worst



when it comes to you

we were always the first

when it comes to you

silence is the worst



silence is the worst
