Paul Miles - Hushed Cries lyrics

[Verse 1] I get it's best just to move on But you're real good for a sad song Yet another pop hit in the mix Played back-to-back, pistols at dawn You've been Swifted, now tell me Is such a normal thing that wrong? Sincerely, not really cause I clearly Loved you so dearly for so long (Ba**) [Chorus] I try to avoid the idea That if I wrote to you sometime A simple hello, hey or hi Just might have turned the tide So I would no longer be waking With weary eyes, staring at night skies Hushed cries in my pillow [Verse 2] People ask how I stay so calm I simply remind 'em to breathe But our memories never fail To bring the anger out of me Listen, I'm happy that you're happy But I hate that you're laughing Seeing red lights like in traffic Drives me psychopathic – back it up Back it up now [Chorus] I try to avoid the idea That if I wrote to you sometime A simple hello, hey or hi Just might have turned the tide So I would no longer be waking With weary eyes, staring at night skies Hushed cries in my pillow [Verse 3] Remember when you gave me your all Right there on my bedroom floor Everything made sense way back then Now you're someone else's friend Quick, I need a paper and pen now To process this the only way I know how But there's no space on the page [Chorus] I try to avoid the idea That if I wrote to you sometime A simple hello, hey or hi Just might have turned the tide So I would no longer be waking With weary eyes, staring at night skies Hushed cries in my pillow [x2] [Coda] Hushed cries in my pillow [x4]
