You've been opening up more
This is what I've begged for
You've slowed the constant fighting
But you start arguing here and there
Then turn it around and calm down in an instant
So I'm yelling alone, now I'm the bad guy

I hate all the fighting
Confrontation has always worried me
Since I'm always the one left behind
It's like talking to a brick wall
When I beg I'm greeted by silence
When I'm silent I'm greeted by anger

Now that I'm backing away we've traded places somehow
Where i used to care too much and you cared so little
Now you stand above me screaming for my voice
You should have listened to my words before i gave up caring
Because when I'm silent, I'm already gone
