No Reply Lyrics

Like the perfect ending
It won't be too long
Til everything I've ruined has seen me gone
In time I pray you'll forgive
Now you know the man I am
Can you forgive me?

I fall
Like the sands of time
Like some broken rhyme
At feet no longer there

If only I could call the rain to melt and wash away the pain you feel,
I would
You gave yourself to me and showed me what the truth could be
For that I say thank you
This was my life
It never made much sense to me

With every lie that I lived
A part of me would fade
Into this empty shadow I've become
And now I feel so numb
I no longer know myself
But I still know you

I call
And there's no reply
Like some phantom cry
On ears too far away

I close my eyes and watch as my life passes by
The only thing I see is you
For all the times you walked the line for me and standing by my side
I say thank you
Here lies my life
It never felt that real to me

And there's no reply
And there's no reply
You'll never know how much you meant to me
And there's no reply
And there's no reply
You'll never know how much you meant to me

If only I could call the rain to melt and wash away the pain you feel,
I would
You gave yourself to me and showed me what the truth could be
For that I say thank you
(I say thank you)

I close my eyes and watch as my life passes by
The only thing I see is you
For all the times you walked the line for me and standing by my side
I say thank you

You in my life
It all meant so much more
To be

This song is so beautiful, and so strong. To me its about a guy who thinks less of himself, who has messed up so many times, caused the one he cares about so much pain that she left. He doesn't understand why he does what he does, but he knows that she is very important. He's become the mask he put on to hide his secrets and the only "truth" he knows is her. So he seeks for her, but she's gone. He confesses how much he feels about her appriciates her, but she's not there to hear it.

I love how the stronger/more important the words are, the faster/more dramatic the melody becomes and the whole song seems to peak at "I say thank you". Even right now this song makes my eyes wet thinking about the best friend I've ever had...

thank you Kimberly.

The first time i heard this song i thought it was a suicide note. It is pretty painful though.
