we don't talk about it Lyrics

Tired eyes, I'm woken up before the morning

No time to process the words that were spoken

Lay your head on the pillow and go back to sleep

There's no need to concern yourself with all these adult thing

Can't be much help at fourteen

Bright lights, fluorescents always made my head spin

Weak smiles they forced, to hide the devastation

A river made of our tears flooded hospital floors

We were drowned in our fears wondering"What was it all for?"

Scared of what we didn't know

And we don't talk about it

We never talk about it

We don't talk about it

Oh we don't talk about it

We don't talk about it

We don't talk about it

Long time he wore that white paper bracelet

Long drive, the freeway couldn't span the distance

Weeks on end stuck at home while you were so far away

Wishing all this would end until you came home one day

All but a ghost of yourself

And we don't talk about it

We never talk about it

We don't talk about it

Oh we don't talk about it

We don't talk about it

We don't talk about it

Feeling like a fever dream, this silence got me questioning

If this is really my reality

Fallibility of memories, is it real or was it make-believe

But I know, I know

It happened to me

It happened to me oh

We were called to say goodbye in the middle of the night

One too many times

Smiling through the tears, at least we got this many years

But now you're fine

And we don't talk about it

We never talk about it

We don't talk about it

Oh we don't talk about it

We don't talk about it

We never talk about it

Feeling like a fever dream, this silence got me questioning

If this is really my reality (really my reality)

Fallibility of memories, is it real or was it make-believe

But I know, I know

It happened to me oh

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

It happened to me
