Don't waste your breath

I can't even muster the enthusiasm to cry this time.
I can see in your eyes that your mind is racing.
Searching for the perfect reason.
Your lips part...
Don't waste your breath.

I thought I was opening up, blossoming into something beautiful.
But your veil's been lifted and I've never been so alone.
I got closer to you... and farther away from myself.
Your lips part...
Don't waste your breath.

You fumble, you falter and reach for words.
But, hey, you don't have to explain.
I don't need you to.
I watch your lips part...
Don't waste your breath.
