I can see it in your eyes, I can hear it in your voice
The signs are obvious that all we had has run its course
I don't mind giving up the upper hand in this little charade
Cuz I've spent too many nights here on the floor
Waiting for something inside you to change
Don't look back in anger that is all that you can see
Cuz anger's all I got to keep me warm when you're away
And I know that this is nothing new but tonight is all I know
Disconnect myself from your memory and never feel anything at all
To justify with all your words don't mean anything to me
Cuz I've cut you off
So here we stand and face each other we've got nothing to say
A flashback to another time when silence was a welcome friend
Now I'm sorry I can never really say all the things going on inside my head
Silence is a justified expression of my war now nothing's like it was before Don't look back in anger
Now is that all that you can say?
Cuz anger's all I got to keep me warm when you're away
And all your words and all our actions don't mean anything to me
Cuz I've got you off.
Don't look back in anger, don't look back in anger, don't look back in anger,
It's just a memory.....
And it's easy to forget your face
And It's easy to survive in this place without you, without you
I just comb my hair and wash my face
Keep straight ahead and keep my pace
Don't think about nothing
I might never be alright
Well I got my friends I got my pen
I got a million distractions to keep me warm
And I know is that I'll be alright
I'll be alright
