I am the eavesdropper now
As the headlights stream across your drive
Like the dead still walk among the living now
To remember how it felt to be alive.

Even though the silence is just deafening me now
Some things I wish I’d never heard at all
In the stutter and the noise of all these fragments of sentences
You were the comma in a jumble of words
I was the whisper that couldn’t be heard
I still hear your voice but now I’m only eavesdropping

In my ears I feel the burning now
Like someone someday walking on my grave
Coded pleas, regretful reveries
Our final broadcast on the longest wave.

Even though the silence is just deafening me now
Some things I wish I’d never heard at all
In the stutter and the noise of all these fragments of sentences
You were the comma in a jumble of words
I was the whisper that couldn’t be heard
I still hear your voice but now I’m only eavesdropping

On a radio in hell they sing of squandered good intentions
The messages are just loneliness from a stolen conversation
Even though the silence is just deafening me now
Some things I wish I’d never heard at all
In the stutter and the noise of all these fragments of sentences
You were the comma in a jumble of words
I was the whisper that couldn’t be heard
I still hear your voice but now I’m only eavesdropping
