All these nights alone in silence
I called you on the phone
Now you're nowhere to be found
All my nerves have come unwound
All the times when my friends were close
Well, their words were oh so clear
Now they've left me here alone
A fear that chills me to the bone
Always made to make decisions
Politicians, guns, religions
When the dust has cleared away
I'll still be here to say
That if love is not the reason
That we ended up together
Then I guess it's time to break it
Time to take it away
All these nights in my seclusion
Within the same four walls
Something races through my vein
Scars of love and scars of pain
The shadows walk and the windows talk
But they keep me company
I wish something would intrude
Break the walls of solitude
Always tied to modern fashion
Male egos, no compassion
When the time has ticked away
I'll still be here to say
That if love is not the reason
That we ended up together
Then I guess it's time to break it
Time to take it away
