The Silence You Left

I wonder how you could
Leave something so loud
But your lies were noise
And your leaving brought me

I sit on the edge of a bed
Where we used to pretend
Where we used to exist
Your perfume is no longer in the air
But your absence suffocates me

Your promises are just echoes
And your voice an empty whisper
Of all that we learned

I look at the door you close
And at the tears left empty
Our story didn't end
It just became the sound of silence

And my only company now
Is the silence you left behind
It doesn't judge me
It doesn't question me
It just shows me a naked lie

And my only company now
Is the loneliness you taught me
The only thing I can hear
Is the echo of a love that never

Your eyes no longer sealed
I remember your laughter
But it no longer has the same sound
It's like a song that was cut short
Leaving a void in my melody

I look at the door, you close
And that's just left empty
My story didn't end
It just became the sound of silence

My only company now
Is the silence you left behind
It doesn't judge me, it doesn't question me
It just shows me a naked lie

And my only company now
Is the loneliness you taught me
The only thing I can hear
Is the echo of a love that now never existed

Your lies were noisy
But your absence is the loudest sound
With you and now
I've learned to feel at home
