I've been living in the light of the shadows Why wont you let me leave I've been trying to find my way to the shallows But the water's just too deep Always something inside of me keeps dragging me down I'm going deep below the undertow And it wont let go All I need is silence
There's a thumping that's filled with violence And it creeps in through the walls at night when When I cant see happy from sad, good or bad All I need is silence All I need is silence I'm crying out for silence You're not my partner no your not a part of me I need silence
So tired of breathing in numbers Trying to stop my racing heart Oh all I know is that I want it to stop And I dont know where to start Your always on my shoulder praying I wont try anymore Conversations that begin to shout Are you happy now? All I need is silence
