Silent Screams
Come down
Slip away with me
And finally you'll see
Slow down
Heart beating out of control
You push and I always pull
Now I see
Every day I get trapped inside my head
The cage gets smaller as I fight it closing in
The light gets dim I can't tell if I've closed my eyes
But the fire inside is the force keeping me alive
Brick by brick I built
To watch you tear down everything
All the change I made
Not enough to keep you satisfied
I've bit my tongue till the tip dripped red
But now my thoughts must escape my head
These silent screams are...
Some how
You've captured me again
Like a road the never ends
Break down
Every ounce of me still there
Until I'm fragile alone and bare
Now I see
You're the boot that crushes the life below
Now and then you clean it off to go back for more
I hate how I stand in the shadow of the boot's eclipse
But I find myself there more often than I'd like to admit
Brick by brick I built
To watch you tear down everything
All the change I made
Not enough to keep you satisfied
I've bit my tongue till the tip dripped red
But now my thoughts must escape my head
These silent screams are deafening
Bird in a cage
I can't go free
I hear a song
But I can't sing
In a void
Where I can't see
All the darkness surrounds me
I raise my voice
No one hears me
I cry for help
But no one's turning
I'd save myself
But is it worth living
If all I am is your punching bag
Brick by brick I built
To watch you tear down everything
All the change I made
Not enough to keep you satisfied
I've bit my tongue till the tip dripped red
But now my thoughts must escape my head
These silent screams are deafening
Slip away with me
And finally you'll see
Slow down
Heart beating out of control
You push and I always pull
Now I see
Every day I get trapped inside my head
The cage gets smaller as I fight it closing in
The light gets dim I can't tell if I've closed my eyes
But the fire inside is the force keeping me alive
Brick by brick I built
To watch you tear down everything
All the change I made
Not enough to keep you satisfied
I've bit my tongue till the tip dripped red
But now my thoughts must escape my head
These silent screams are...
Some how
You've captured me again
Like a road the never ends
Break down
Every ounce of me still there
Until I'm fragile alone and bare
Now I see
You're the boot that crushes the life below
Now and then you clean it off to go back for more
I hate how I stand in the shadow of the boot's eclipse
But I find myself there more often than I'd like to admit
Brick by brick I built
To watch you tear down everything
All the change I made
Not enough to keep you satisfied
I've bit my tongue till the tip dripped red
But now my thoughts must escape my head
These silent screams are deafening
Bird in a cage
I can't go free
I hear a song
But I can't sing
In a void
Where I can't see
All the darkness surrounds me
I raise my voice
No one hears me
I cry for help
But no one's turning
I'd save myself
But is it worth living
If all I am is your punching bag
Brick by brick I built
To watch you tear down everything
All the change I made
Not enough to keep you satisfied
I've bit my tongue till the tip dripped red
But now my thoughts must escape my head
These silent screams are deafening
