Lyrics:
Verse 1
I walked into the room it got quiet for a bit
It was like that whole damn party knew something that I didn't
I asked about her where she was nobody knew
They sidestepped my questions and didn't know what to do
I'm sinking in suspicion with no one to turn to
Chorus
There's a code of silence hangin’ in the air
Nobody’s talkin’ but I can feel that stare
Inside I’m dyin’ cause I don't really know
I wish someone would say somethin’ and break the code
Verse 2
Is there an unwritten law of what we can and cannot say
When I questioned her about it she turned and looked away
The silence tells me just enough to make it really hurt
The truth lies there hiding behind this quiet curse
And every passing minute just makes matters worse
Chorus-Repeat
Bridge
I'll bide my time there's no sense going off the deep end
One day somebody's gonna finally talk but until then
Chorus
There's a code of silence hangin’ in the air
Nobody’s talkin’ but I can feel that stare
Inside I’m dyin’ cause I don't really know
I wish someone would say somethin’
Chorus-Repeat
Tag - I wish someone would say somethin’ and break the code
