lyrics

She used to talk a lot, I didn’t mind though
I’d nod and sip a cappuccino
A never ending stream of consciousness
I'm gonna miss its gentle caress

The last time I heard her voice since it was stolen
Just 35 seconds passed this silence ain't golden
So quiet now i hear myself thinking
My phone ain't ringing
Waiting for the voicemail to kick in
It kills me a little more each and every time

“I don't love you no more” she says
Delivered like a bullet to the head
That sweet voice is all I have to ease the pain
‘Cause Nothing else remains

As operas go it's second to none
So many favourite parts to chose from
But when she says “it’s not you it’s me”
I think shes nails it so beautifully

The last time I heard her voice since it was stolen
Just 35 seconds passed this silence ain't golden
So quiet now i hear myself thinking
My phone ain't ringing
Waiting for the voicemail to kick in
It kills me a little more each and every time

“I don't love you no more” she says
Delivered like a bullet to the head
That sweet voice is all I have to ease the pain
‘Cause Nothing else remains

Now i have all the facts I don’t want her back
She's a freight train loose on the track
How can sounds so pleasing shape words that are so unappealing
And here was me believing, she’s so innocent
Not deceiving, all this time though cheating
With this other guy, she’s been seeing like forever
You gotta be kidding
And to think she was somebody I believed in

“I don't love you no more” she says
Delivered like a bullet to the head
That sweet voice is all I have to ease the pain
‘Cause Nothing else remains
Nothing else remains, nothing else, nothing
