Falling Without Sound by Melodie Yvonne

Even when I reach out you don’t feel me
So why would you think I’d reach out for you
Even when I’m so loud you don’t see me
So why can’t I stay blind to this all too

Every time you walk away I crumble
All my pieces falling to the ground
Every time I chase you I just stumble
Like a tree falling that doesn’t make a sound

Every time you leave me I’m in pieces
Knowing I might never see again
How could you just walk away and leave us
I wasn’t ready for it all to end

Every time you walk away I crumble
All my pieces falling to the ground
Every time I chase you I just stumble
Like a tree falling that doesn’t make a sound

Every day I feel a little colder
And I hide myself away from all but you
The face upon my clock keeps getting older
And I just don’t know what I should do

Every time you walk away I crumble
All my pieces falling to the ground
Every time I chase you I just stumble
Like a tree falling that doesn’t make a sound

Like a tree falling that doesn’t make a sound
