How Heavy the Quiet That Grew Between Your Mouth and Mine - Peggy Sue

How heavy the quiet that grew between your mouth and mine

I’ll bet it weighs more than anybody that I could find

We filled it words in the hope that we could drown it out

But it was too loud

It was too loud

How heavy the silence that grows in between our two mouths

It weighs me down more than anybody you have since found

We filled with words in the hope that we could drown it out

Out, out, out

But it was too loud

It was too loud

I can still hear it now in between every sound

That comes out of your mouth

As I stand in the crowd

And you know I’m proud

Of the words you’ve now found

I wish you wouuld wait

Until I was not around
