Silence blares in my ears
Never has quiet felt this loud
I crave your voice and sound
Noiseless oblivion rings out
I can't hear myself think
I don't know what to believe
I'm drowning in this ear piercing quiet
I can see the words on your lips
Scream them out before I lose it
I'm struggling to breathe in
You suffocate me with indifference
I can take a hit
I can hold my own
But I can't take this
I feel so alone
I'm willing to listen
But you hold a frozen tongue
Ice on your blue lips
Snowflakes cloud my vision
One word is all I ask for
Anything to fight this cold
I miss your warmth
But you've become numb
Come back to me
I stand on the outside of doors locked, barred and slammed shut
Waves of noiseless hurt push against my eardrums
Emotion is haunting
And you're a silent ghost screaming in my head
Please just tell me
Because of all the lips I've read,
Yours seem to be the only ones not moving
My heart can't find a reason to feel
It's killing me
Tell me what you aren't saying
I can see what we could be
But my eyesight is failing me
And if I can't find your voice I'll lose my hearing
Speak up, even to tell me to leave
I don't know what to feel
And my mind is going
In this noiselessness I can't think
I've lost the hope to believe
My thoughts seem like the bland words of a script
This is killing me
Without you every sound feels like heartless emotion
Quiet is deafening
I've given all I can give
Please
Break the silence..
