I guess I never once, had all that much to say
Had my back against the wall right from the start
So I'll take it as it is, I've always been that way
While my fears abandon hope of what's to come
They tell me not to be so over sentimental
Just run back to the emptiness you blame (oh, oh)

So I keep letting the silence put it's hands on my neck
If I could break through the quiet, I'd take it all back
Still I give into the violence and the grip that it has
On my neck, on my neck
On my neck, on my neck

I tried to run away, tried to seperate
From this cold and empty shell that I've become
Telling myself "Don't be so oversentimental"
Let it play out 'cause the ending's all the same (oh, oh)

So I keep letting the silence put it's hands on my neck
If I could break through the quiet, I'd take it all back
Still I give into the violence and the grip that it has
On my neck, on my neck
On my neck, on my neck

Blood filling my chest pushed over the edge
Baptized in the name of every word I left unsaid
Keep the blood filling my chest
It's a sick kind of obsessed
I need to taste the bitter hollow on my lips

'Cause I'm in love with the silence and it's hands on my neck
And I can't break through the quiet just to take it all back
So I give into the violence and the grip that it has
On my neck, on my neck
On my neck, on my neck
