I'm Just Saying It's Torture

 

Verse 1
Drove you home in silence
Every mile felt longer
You looked straight ahead
I held the wheel tighter

Verse 2
I don’t know if you notice
Or if you even care
That emptiness between us
Is more than I can bear

Chorus
I’m not asking you to fix me
Or fill the space inside
I’m just saying it’s torture
When the one I love won’t turn my way
And I don’t know how to reach you

Verse 3
I’m not proud of my longing
It makes me feel small
But when I drop you at the doorway
And you don’t look back at all…

Chorus
I’m not asking you to fix me
Or fill the space inside
I’m just saying it’s torture
When the one I love won’t turn my way
And I don’t know how to reach you

Bridge
Maybe words don’t matter
Maybe silence is enough for you
But I’m haunted by the quiet
’Cause I don’t know what it means

Chorus
I’m not asking you to fix me
Or fill the space inside
I’m just saying it’s torture
When the one I love won’t turn my way
And I don’t know how to reach you

Outro
I don’t know how to reach you
