Take The Sting Out

Oh, lately we ain't been communicating beyond what needs to be said and done

Short sharp words like arrows that pierce our skin let the poison run

You're showing no emotion, I don't think it's noble to be proud

Yes we take it for granted that we love each other,

Can't bring ourselves to say it out loud

I hope we find a way to take the sting out.

Yesterday we were driving through an echoed silence

I had to turn the radio on

Standing frozen on the edge of the rocks looking down

Both of us afraid to take a dive

And when I find the drive

To break the surface nice and slow

Well the fall was clumsy and I get out

How come you would not through me a robe?

I hope we help each other

Help each other go.

So don't feel hopeless

When there's smoke

There is fire,

There is fire

I want to talk to you without making excuses

Or putting on a mask because I feel ashamed

I want you to hear me out, now make a judgment call

You know you used to be that kind of friend

So show me some emotion

Oh, we both know it's been too long

I hope we find the connection that made us strong.

Yes I hope we find the connection that made us strong.
