Everyone is walking all over each other
Everybody is talking over each other
There's a whole wide world
And no one's listening
I'm not saying
No one should say anything
The silence would drive us insane
But maybe we should think before we speak
I've had my fill of empty days
But I don't miss the screaming
I've always been the girl who whispered
And never shared her story
I'm not quite ready yet
To be part of the crowd
But, like a child
I'm learning to speak
I was inspired
By a boy with a liquid tongue
I hummed to him "Silence is golden."
He sang to me " Duct tape is silver, I'd rather have platinum"
