lyrics

What did I do
And why won’t you tell me?
The ache of not knowing
Is too much to bear

I wear your silence like iron chains
Ones I’m afraid I’ll never shake
You used to believe in me
What, what changed?

What was the sin
And what is the reason?
None has been given
You’ve kept it hidden

And I wear your silence like a death sentence
And daily, I’ve been paying penance
You used to believe in me
But you’ve waned
Your former favor I’ll forever chase
A better time in a better place
When you believed in me
What, what changed?

What did I do
And why won’t you tell me?
The ache of uncertainty
It sickens my soul
I’m ashamed of a sin
That’s been kept secret
I’ve lost your affection
I’ve lost all control

I wear your silence like a rusted crown
Shackled, battered, gagged, and bound
You used to believe in me
Where are you now?
And I wear your silence like iron chains
Ones I’m afraid I’ll never shake
You used to believe in me
What, what changed?

A better time
A better place
That’s where I hide
What I’ll forever chase
A better time
Your former grace
That’s where I hide
What I’ll forever chase
