All the times that we turned quiet
They couldn't cure or heal
The medicine of your infectious smile
Now only harms with what it reveals
And I can't take it no more, this quickness of heart
My thoughts in constant strain
I can't let go of that knock on my door
I'm trying to feel the peace that silence brings
Crimes of passion
Just don't cut it no more
Fits and fashions show the silence we wore
We've never felt this before
You spoke your final quiet words
Where only silence speaks
I'm deafened by that piercing look in your eyes
And muted by the pain they conceal
No, I can't take it no more, this shrillness of mind
The emptiness I feel
And I won't ever hear your steps on my floor
I'm crying to fill the quietness you leave
Crimes of passion
Just don't cut it no more
Fits and fashions
Show the silence we wore
For crimes of passion
They just don't cut it nor more
Fits and fashions
Show the silence we wore
We've never felt this before
Our crimes of passion
Just don't cut it no more
Fits and fashions
Show the silence we wore
And bring a brightness to love
