Words that I cannot say run down my face.
Words I think too late,
Come to me at night,
Always present, causing a fight.

Standing in front of you,
Defenseless.
Your words cutting my skin,
Again.

No way to hold you back,
But to hang on to the dreams.
I'm always drowning,
In my silent screams.

Hanging on forever,
To realize the ledge is gone.
Falling into darkness,
Wishing I had just held on.

Fighting my way through the night,
Silently screaming.
Hoping I'll still be there,
Come the morning.

Drowning in my share,
Of broken hearts.
Wondering where I went wrong,
Where did we part?

I'm still standing in front of you,
Defenseless.
Your ugly words cutting my skin,
Again and again.

No way to hold you back,
But to hang on to the lost dreams.
I'm always drowning,
In my silent screams.

Words that I cannot say run down my face.
Your words that I can't seem to escape.
Blood mixing with my tears.
Your words cause my biggest fears.

You can hurt me until I break,
But you'll never see me fall.
Somehow I'll still stand,
Through it all.

Silent screams are my defense.
Your words always fit and make sense.
But you won't ever sense my weakness,
Screaming in the darkness is my last stand.
