All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise
All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise

If looks could kill
I'd be in trouble right now
Time stands still
When you're around

I gave you all my time
And you gave me all your lies
And you've just come around
To say goodbye

Now here we stand with our hearts in our hands
Squeezing out all the lies
All that I hear is a message unclear
What else is there to decide?

All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise
All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise, white noise

You promised me your soul
But then left me in the cold
No warning and without a reason

You're placing yourself in a world of mistrust
Making excuses it's not you, it's us
But how can something unspoken
Seem so loud and now

All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise
All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise

The operator comes on the line
Says hurry up, man
Cause you ain't got much time
White noise, white noise

All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise
All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise
White noise, white noise

All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise
All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise

All that I'm hearing from you
Is white noise, white noise
All that I'm hearing from you
