My hand in front of my mouth

Keeping it close

Ignoring the notes, of my singing heart

My hands covering my ears

Afraid the scream will never come out

The black void in my head can't seem to understand

That I want to be free

I don't want to sit here in silence and hurt through it all

Without saying a word

Without asking for help

Without asking for forgiveness for something I haven't done

So I'll sit here in silence and I sit here still

Because if I move my world surely will

Crumble down beneath my feet

Revealing the darkness that's underneath

So I'll sit here and look at my days in the sun

Laughing and full of fun

I want to forget the past

But deep down I know the happiness won't last

So I'll sit here in silent and still because if I'd open my mouth I will never stop screaming
