This shattering silence makes my ears bleed
Tearing at my brain - ripping me to pieces with its intensity

It won't end - this hollow ringing - this soul destroying pain
The symphony of disaster plays forever in my mind

Screeching melodies, discordant notes drown out all else
I can't breathe - the music is in my lungs, my heart, my soul

The sound swells - the end is approaching
My screams join the blasting instruments in a terrible harmony

A sudden stop - pure tranquility
Except for my pitiful wail breaking through the thick air

- starr
