lyrics

The hardest thing is to go and to stay gone
Give you your space not add to the confusion
To weather the cold that has grown in my home and the bed I made
I never found a thing easy about walking away

The hardest thing is the urge to be near you
Knowing the hurt that you feel and the fear too
Knowing that i’m not the one that can comfort you anymore
Cos I am the one that brought all of this to your door

And the hardest nights when all sleep has been stolen
When the ghosts terrorise and your soul is torn open
Though you want nothing more than to take back it all and undo all you’ve done
Still doesn’t mean that you made the wrong decision

The hardest thing is the hole that's created
The absence that grows till your heart's inundated
Hope the time will come soon when the silence that looms isn’t all I hear
I know it’ll come but I don’t think that time is near
