[Verse 1]
Did I hurt you that bad, babe?
Did I really mess this up?
Swear I intended to tread lightly
But still, I woke the beast in you
See, I was hoping to save us
I pointed out the dark clouds
But you ran into the rain anyway
And now there's no way out
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not the storm that I can't stand
It's in your reticent manner, man
I think we both know
That the ball is in your court
[Chorus]
Honey, it kills me, the radio silence
I never saw us here
In a world where our lips are sealed
It's harder to heal
When honey it kills me, all of this quiet
I never thought you'd
Go out of your way to stay out of mine
But I'm putting my money on time
[Verse 2]
All my sorries were useless, so I'll hold my breath
Wait it out and leave you be with all your rage
In your lonely and lovelessness
It's hard to be the one to save you
Our peers talk of you only in passing
Censoring their stories of your pain
But I know all about your bad nights
Tendency to slight at the mention of my name
[Pre-Chorus]
I willingly take all the blame
But the ball is in your court
[Chorus]
Honey, it kills me, the radio silence
I never saw us here
In a world where our lips are sealed
It's harder to heal
When honey it kills me, all of this quiet
I never thought you'd
Go out of your way to stay out of mine
But I'm putting my money on time
Put all my money on time
[Bridge]
But with the way it all played out
Was there ever a hope in hell
That you'd keep close
Sit tight and take it well? No
It is a pipe dream at best that you might
Ever get your head around
How it all went down
Though I live guilt-ridden
Wouldn't dare to take it all back
As I'd not be where I stand
Nor who I am or where I need to be
[Pre-Chorus]
But that will never be heard, babe
'Till the day comes when you love again
Maybe the saddest, but best part is
She'll hold you tighter than I ever did back then
[Chorus]
Honey, it kills me, the radio silence
I never saw us here
In a world where our lips are sealed
It's harder to heal
When honey it kills me, all of this quiet
I never thought you'd
Go out of your way to stay out of mine
But I put all my money on time
Put all my money on time
