When I'm Silent
Forgive me when I'm silent
For when my mind takes over me
It isn't that I don't care
It's simply space I need
Forgive me when I'm silent
For when I cannot speak my mind
Sometimes it gets so crowded there
I simply cannot find the time
Forgive me when I'm silent
For when my words are weak
Sometimes my thoughts can be constricting
And it isn't advice I seek
Forgive me when I'm silent
For the times I cannot find
A good moment to tell you exactly
What's been on my mind
Forgive me when I'm silent
For it may be something you don't know
Like the way I miss and love you
But feel I need to let you go
Forgive me when I'm silent
For I still need room to grow
And although I will come back to you
Sometimes I need to be alone
For when my mind takes over me
It isn't that I don't care
It's simply space I need
Forgive me when I'm silent
For when I cannot speak my mind
Sometimes it gets so crowded there
I simply cannot find the time
Forgive me when I'm silent
For when my words are weak
Sometimes my thoughts can be constricting
And it isn't advice I seek
Forgive me when I'm silent
For the times I cannot find
A good moment to tell you exactly
What's been on my mind
Forgive me when I'm silent
For it may be something you don't know
Like the way I miss and love you
But feel I need to let you go
Forgive me when I'm silent
For I still need room to grow
And although I will come back to you
Sometimes I need to be alone
