A place of silence
is a very cold and dark place to be
this anyone could see.
words are never really heard
my pains hold its own language
that runs deep into the darkness of my mind
that plays over time.
Oh, how I did write my famous lines
for others to read all that I bleed
as my heart poured out in ink.
Oh, how my body feels so weak
Silence holds no peace
where no witness is around to see
how hard I have fallen -
what this darkness holds over me
that has washed the brightness away
leaving me in a life of gray-
that made me this away
Silence is a place of a dark state of mind
with pains that never seem to go away
I wanted to tell those witness how I felt
but I am feeling so ill
this is for real.
what was truly going on with me
but I didn't think
they would understand
I didn't want to be caught up
in the talk of the town
being played like a clown
always being beaten down
and to have my name past around.
I know I didn't like how this sound
but living a life in silence
with dirty rages are upon my skin
while my poor heart
sinks deeper within
that made a home for all my sins.
Silence is a place that holds no faith
all I see is the rain
that brings on more pains,
I long to be comforted by true love
but that day never made its way.
