Impassive Impasse

lyrics

The awkward silence
The uncomfortable tension
I think I'd rather do without it
I think I'm better off without it
The timing's all wrong
The gesture inappropriate
Reciprocation is irrelevant
I think I'm better off without it

Pen and paper don't cut it sometimes
But I won't know unless I try

You allow me to freely speak my mind
But I deny myself the chance
Nothing good can come from this
Impassive impasse
I'm just doing what's best for you and I
I don't want to say goodbye
Just give me time, I'll be just fine

The situation is unfair
But I'm not interested in being selfish
Not this time
Sworn into secrecy, contractual silence
In the interest of feelings spared for all

Pen and paper won't cut it this time
Lord knows how hard I've tried

You allow me to freely speak my mind
But I deny myself the chance
Nothing good can come from this
Impassive impasse
I'm just doing what's best for you and I
I don't want to say goodbye
Just give me time, I'll be just fine

What I don't want to hear from you,
Is what I need to hear from you
What I need to hear from you,
Is what I just can't hear from you
And what I need to say to you
Well I don't think I can say it anyway

You allow me to freely speak my mind
But I deny myself the chance
Nothing good can come from this
Impassive impasse
I'm just doing what's best for you and I
I don't want to say goodbye
Give it time
We'll be just fine
Impassive Impasse
