(Verse 1)
I called…
That’s the worst
’Cause you barely could speak even a word
Yeah, I called…
For your love
All I heard was phone static, oh that buzz
It’s stuck inside my head
What do I need?
How do you care so little about me?
Can’t you see
I’m so broken?
(Pre-Chorus)
I tried to scream outside
But the words were locked away
Every feeling trapped inside
With nothing left to say
I felt so very alone…
(Chorus)
But I called
When you gave me nothing at all
Just silence on the line
While I waited for your call
And I tried
To keep you close somehow
But your quiet said the truth
That I’m finally hearing now
Your silence meant more to me
Than anything you’d say
And I called…
But you were already miles away
(Verse 2)
I know now
Since I’ve found my home
I don’t have to face the world alone
Your silence said enough
More than words you ever gave
Every empty moment
Was a lesson I had to save
Oh I tried
To keep you near
But the truth would hide
And disappear
And though I loved you
More than I should’ve
I wouldn’t take it back
Even if I could’ve
(Chorus)
Yeah I called
When you gave me nothing at all
Just silence on the line
While I waited for your call
And I tried
To believe somehow
But your quiet said the truth
That I’m finally hearing now
Your silence meant more to me
Than anything you’d say
And I called…
But you were already miles away
(Bridge)
Now I’ve learned
To trust myself
Even when the pain still hits my chest
Sometimes it’s hard
Not to hurt myself
With the words I keep instead
No one’s really to blame
You didn’t help, but I won’t hold the shame
That was the past
I’m way past that
I’ve grown
I stood on my own
Took care of myself
Became someone I’ve never known
The words once trapped
Inside my head
Are finally free
Now they’ve been said
(Final Chorus)
’Cause I called
When you gave me nothing at all
Just silence on the line
While I waited for your call
And I tried
But I see it now
Your silence was the answer
I just didn’t know how
Your silence meant more to me
Than anything you’d say
And I called…
But I’m the one
Who finally walked away
